Publisher Description
THE FIRST CHILLING NOVEL IN THE ACCLAIMED ROBERT HUNTER SERIES
When the body of a young woman is discovered in a derelict cottage in Los Angeles, Robert Hunter is thrown into a nightmare case. The victim suffered a terrible death, and on the nape of her neck has been carved a strange double-cross: the signature of a psychopath known as the Crucifix Killer.
But that's impossible. Because two years ago, the Crucifix Killer was caught and executed. Could this therefore be a copycat killer? Or could the unthinkable be true? Is the real killer still out there, ready to embark once again on a vicious and violent killing spree, selecting his victims seemingly at random, taunting Robert Hunter with his inability to catch him?
Hunter and his rookie partner, Garcia, need to solve this case and fast.

APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
Police detective Robert Hunter thought his nightmare was over when he caught the sadistic killer who shattered his life. But when a grisly new murder seems to point back to his old nemesis, Hunter becomes obsessed with solving the case and laying his tortured past to rest. London-based author Chris Carter used to work as a criminal psychologist; his expertise gives this hard-hitting, fast-paced mystery its frightening authenticity.
Customer Reviews
Great!
A little heavier on the machismo than my normal reads but plenty of juice to make me overlook it.
Crucifix Killers
Excellent story line; moves at a good pace, ensuring it is hard to put down; believable characters but the main detective could have more depth. I hope there are more novels with the same pair of detectives, different crimes, perhaps continue with the ramifications of Hunter and D-King (can't say more without spoiling this story). Well worth a read!
Brilliant
