Nine Lives

The internationally bestselling author of Blood Red delivers "a masterfully written, first class mystery thriller with a jaw dropping twist" (Once Upon a Time Book Reviews).

Will this killer ever run out of luck? When DI Erica Cheetham and DS Beth Machin are called to investigate the murder of a young woman, whose naked body is discovered in a river, they realise an old foe is killing again.


The police realise this new death is linked to a spate of cold case murders and the killer is back.


Five years earlier, four young women were found murdered, their bodies left in woody areas, and the new victim shares similar hallmarks.


But why did the killer stop killing for all that time and what has inspired them to start again?


As more young women fall victim to a vicious and calculating murderer, Erica and Beth find themselves chasing their tails.


But when a witness is identified the case takes an unexpected and macabre turn.


Can Erica and Beth bring the killer to justice, or will this case prove too much?


"Quite a whirlwind of murder . . . Smartly plotted and—as always—so cleverly written, this is a gripping whodunnit." —Grace J Reviewerlady
