The bound and naked body of a young woman is discovered in the third floor flat of an abandoned and condemned tower block in South Tottenham. The victim had been raped, mutilated, blinded with bleach and had her throat cut, just three weeks prior to the murder of another woman.
Due to the MO in both killings bearing similarities, Detective Chief Inspector Matt Barnes and his elite Serious Crime Unit are given the case to investigate.
Matt knows that they are hunting for a serial killer on some warped a homicidal psychopath who will no doubt continue to commit murders until he is identified and closed down.
I write the type of original, action-packed, violent crime thrillers that I know I would enjoy reading if they were written by such authors as: Lee Child, David Baldacci, Harlan Coben, Michael Connelly and their ilk. Over twenty years in the Prison Service proved great research into the minds of criminals, and especially into the dark world that serial killers - of who I have met quite a few - frequent.
I live in a cottage a mile from the nearest main road in the Yorkshire Wolds, enjoy photography, the wildlife, and of course creating new characters to place in dilemmas that my mind dreams up.
What makes a good read? Believable protagonists that you care about, set in a story that stirs all of your emotions.
If you like crime fiction, then I believe that 'Deadly Reprisal' and 'A Reacher Kind of Guy - Aftermath' will push all the right buttons for you.
Love all of Michael 's books and especially Matt Barnes. It was an excellent read disturbing in parts, but this is the depths of what serial killers can do! The ending was brill. All I can add is you won't be disappointed at all when you've read a Michael Kerr book.
