Greg Adams puts away serial killers. But now a grand-master has Greg in his sights...“An extremely gripping and fast-paced crime thriller . . . will draw you in from the very start and blindside you with disturbing twists and turns.” —The Eclectic ReviewCriminal psychologist Greg Adams once stood at the pinnacle of Scotland Yard, a hunter of serial killers whose insight turned the darkest minds inside out. Then his wife, Kate, was slaughtered by a predator known only as the Dreamer—and Greg’s world shattered. A year later, on the brink of ending everything, a stranger calls to say the Dreamer is dead—and innocent of Kate’s murder. This single doubt drags Greg back to the Yard, to Superintendent Chief Detective Donaldson and a new team, to reopen the case that destroyed him.Haunted by grief and driven by a need that borders on obsession, Greg peels back layers of lies to find a different kind of nightmare lurking beneath the Dreamer’s legend. Every new lead twists into a trap, every profile fractures into contradictions, and the line between intuition and delusion blurs as he chases a killer who understands him too well. But as time runs out and bodies begin to echo the past, Greg must confront a chilling possibility: the person who butchered Kate has been hiding in plain sight, feeding on his grief, and waiting for him to step into the dark. To solve the one case he cannot let go, he’ll have to enter a maze built from his own fears—and he might not make it out alive.“Packed full of action and there is never a dull moment. It’s easy to pick up but impossible to put down once you are in the thick of the narrative and dying to know what happens next.” —ReviewsFeedTop Amazon Reviews★★★★★ "Kirwan’s writing is so vivid—every chase, every creepy clue, it’s like you’re running through London’s shadows with Greg every step of the way."★★★★★ "Intense, surprising and psychologically chilling - this author knows his stuff!"★★★★★ "This book had me flipping pages way past my bedtime!"★★★★★ "An absorbing and entertaining story with plenty of incident and plot twists.
