Description
She ruined their lives. Now they're going to destroy hers.
Someone is recreating every traumatic point in your life. They are doing this to make you suffer and the only possible end game can be death. Your death.
On the fourth floor of Chaucer House, two teenagers are found chained to a radiator. The boy is dead but the girl is alive. For Detective Kim Stone every detail mirrors her own terrifying experience with her brother Mikey, when they lived in the same tower block thirty years ago.
When the bodies of a middle-aged couple are discovered in a burnt-out car, Kim can't ignore the chilling similarity to the deaths of Erica and Keith - the only loving parents she had ever known.
Kim must face the brutal truth that someone wants to hurt her in the worst way possible. But with a killer firmly fixed on destroying her, can she solve this complex case and save her own life or will she become the final victim?
This heart-stopping and totally addictive crime thriller from multi-million-copy number one bestseller Angela Marsons will have you completely hooked.
