Three Reasons for Revenge

From the internationally bestselling author of THE MURDER RULE comes a new compelling story of gripping suspense – pre-order now!

Three gifts.

Three packages arrive at three very different homes: a respected psychologist’s house, a socialite’s mansion, and a single father’s run-down apartment. The contents will tear apart the lives of their victims.

One deadly game of revenge.

This quickly becomes the most complex case of DS Judith Lee’s career. She’s convinced the gifts connect to a young woman who reported an assault then disappeared overnight…but how?

Not everyone will survive.

As Judith races to uncover the truth, she realises she's no longer just investigating – she's being forced to play a very dangerous game. A game where only the winners will survive.
