Praise for Alex North

The best crime novel of the decade

Steve Cavanagh

A thriller that is both terrifying and utterly heartbreaking. Mesmerising and masterful

Mark Billingham

Shades of Thomas Harris and Stephen King but brilliant in its own right

First it's spooky. Then it's scary. Then it's terrifying
