    About this audiobook

    DI Brook thought the nightmare was over- but the Reaper has left behind a horrifying legacy…

    When an accidental drowning is found to be murder, Brook’s past relationship with the victim makes him the prime suspect. A fact made worse when he receives a chilling message urging him to continue the work of the serial killer The Reaper, the deranged vigilante who had previously terrorised the UK.

    When a copycat murder on a Derby estate surfaces shortly afterwards, Brook is left with no alternative but to reopen the case- and to find a serial killer he knows is already dead.

    But as Brook delves deeper, he unearths the secrets behind a series of savage murders stretching back to 1975. Terrifyingly, it seems that The Reaper’s influence has inspired a new band of willing disciples…

    A nail-shredding thriller for fans of Stuart MacBride and Thomas Harris.

      Excellent follow up to The Reaper; well written, with characters that you actually believe in plus two compelling interwoven stories keep the reader turning the pages deep into the night.
