Eve Clay goes undercover to hunt a killer who preys on women on dating sites. The fifth thriller in the Eve Clay series set in Liverpool.

One morning. Two crimes. Three victims and counting... A new case for Liverpool detective, DCI Eve Clay.

A vigilante killer spreads terror in Merseyside in the third gripping thriller starring Liverpool DCI Eve Clay.

HIS LIFE WAS DEVOTED TO ART. HIS DEATH WAS A MASTERPIECE. Leonard Lawson was a respected professor of medieval art. He lived a quiet life in a suburb of Liverpool with his grown-up daughter. As far as anyone knew, he had no enemies. Louise Lawson watched her father die. Before she blacked out, she saw his body mutilated and deformed, twisted into a hellish parody of the artworks he loved. Investigating a killer bringing medieval horror to Merseyside, DCI Eve Clay must overcome her own demons to unpick the dark symbolism of the crime scene. A fifty-year silence has been broken – with a message written in blood...

DCI Eve Clay is called to investigate a brutal murder of a family, their bodies arranged in a mysterious pattern. As a blizzard rages outside, she races against time to uncover the killer's identity, who seems to have a connection to Eve's buried past. The tension rises as Liverpool waits.

When a 9-year-old is left to die inside a burning car on a sink estate in Peckham, DCI David Rosen is drafted in to investigate. The young boy has been severely burned, and is now fighting for his life. As Rosen and his team begin to scour the crime scene for forensic evidence, they discover something chilling; a graffiti image of a sinister eye, drawn in exquisite detail above the site of the wreckage - and behind it, a series of mysterious markings, etched into the wall. Could the markings represent a secret code left by the killer - a code that will hold the key to the investigation?

Prima ancora di arrivare sulla scena del crimine, il detective David Rosen sa già quello che troverà: niente. Dopo averla rapita, il killer terrà prigioniera la vittima per alcuni giorni, poi la ucciderà e lascerà il cadavere in pieno centro, a Londra. E anche allora la scientifica non rileverà né impronte digitali né tracce di DNA. Nulla. Rosen lo sa perché questo schema si è già ripetuto quattro volte e, per quattro volte, lui e la sua squadra sono stati costretti ad ammettere la propria impotenza. Se solo avessero una traccia, un'unica traccia. Rosen venderebbe l'anima al diavolo per risolvere il caso. Prima ancora di ascoltare la notizia alla radio, padre Sebastian Flint sapeva già che l'assassino avrebbe colpito di nuovo. Perché i suoi delitti seguono lo stesso schema di quelli compiuti da Alessio Capaneo, un eretico vissuto a Firenze alla fine del XIII secolo. E Capaneo uccideva per celebrare un macabro rituale, un rituale che prevedeva il sacrificio di sei donne. Per padre Flint, è giunto il momento di avvertire la polizia: David Rosen è un detective intelligente e meticoloso, capirà subito che quella è la pista giusta. E seguirà le sue indicazioni alla lettera. Quindi ben presto s'insospettirà, farà alcune indagini e scoprirà la "verità". E allora il gioco potrà proseguire con nuove regole.
