Summary

A cold case leads DI Grace Fisher on the hunt for the most dangerous killer of her career - but after 25 years, can she really be sure she will get to the truth?

The same night a local hero saved two people from the burning Marineland resort in Southend, a young woman was raped and murdered minutes from the scene of the fire, the culmination of a series of brutal rapes in the town. The killer was never found.

Twenty-five years on, new DNA techniques have blown the cold case open. DI Grace Fisher relishes the prospect of finally catching the culprit, but when the evidence doesn't point to one clear suspect, she must reconstruct the original investigation. Any suggestion that the Essex force was less than thorough at the time could alienate her colleagues and destroy her chances of reaching the truth.

Grace finds her investigation shadowed by a young true-crime podcaster backed by veteran crime reporter Ivo Sweatman. As pressure mounts she cannot afford to be distracted. She knows that a cold-blooded killer is slowly being backed into a corner, and a cornered predator is often the most dangerous of all....

Great crime series

I really enjoy this series and this book was no exception. There was a sinister subplot, but that finished before it got too much for me. Looking forward to the next one.

So annoying

So annoying the "The Stories from the Fire" did my head in when they kept interrupting the story. Was going to return the book till I started to skip passed the chapters with them in. But it did spoil my enjoyment of the book overall.

Bad start but got better

I was going to give up on it as the beginning was full of improbable ideas and was really irritating. Once it got going it was much better. The reader was OK but nothing more

Decent story, but not exceptional

Fairly predictable - kept pace well but no surprises or twists to elevate into as being a good as it could have been

Thoroughly enjoyable.

I was engrossed by the story, I was gripped from start to finish. The really excellent narration helped to bring the story to life.
