The next thrilling instalment in John Carson's utterly gripping DCI Liam Brodie series. A must-read for fans of J D Kirk and Ed James. ??<p>Some killers are caught.</p><p>Others simply go into hiding...</p><p>DCI Liam Brodie is no stranger to horror. Seven years ago, he led the hunt for a murderer who killed seven women, leaving their bodies out on display like some kind of morbid exhibition. Never any witnesses; never any clue as to who he was. The press called him The Embalmer. Brodie called him a monster.</p><p>Now, seven years later, the killings have started again. Same method. Same pattern. Same nightmare.</p><p>Brodie is called back to Fife to lead the investigation. But this time, the killer isn't just repeating the past-he's rewriting it. And Brodie isn't just hunting a serial killer... He's being hunted.</p><p>Praise for John Carson:</p><p>'Excellent! Fast paced and hard hitting with a sharp edge of quick wit.'
