Jericho Rising

Shattered by the events of his last case, Scott Jericho has returned to the darkest shadows of his past. With Harry in a coma and critically ill, and the truth of his mother's mysterious death finally revealed, nothing and no one can rein in those violent impulses Jericho has striven for decades to control.

Remorseless, he now hunts a man who, it seems, has been haunting his life for longer than anyone could have guessed. But as a final confrontation with the killer known only as 'Peter Garris' looms - this time in a remote glacial valley, at the height of a lethal waterfall - another case calls out to Scott's humanity.

A child survivor of a serial killer is in danger. A child once taken from Jericho's Fair and who knows the identity of 'the Pied Piper' - the savage monster who abducted and held him hostage for months on end. A desperate, lonely child who will speak only to Scott Jericho...

As other children go missing from fairs around the country, apparent victims of the Piper, the Traveller community joins the hunt while simultaneously coming under media and public assault. A populist backlash, led by a far-right politician from Scott's past, threatens the fairground way of life. Only the distracted and increasingly unstable Scott Jericho can save both the children and the community he calls home. But as he homes in on the soul-shattering solution to the mystery, will Scott be able to bring a new kind of killer to justice?
