Description
A darkly comic novel about a serial killer and the policeman determined to catch him. Clifton Gentle is an ordinary man with a sinister secret: he's leaving body parts around North London. DCI Dave Hicks is hot on his trail, but his unorthodox methods only seem to lead to more gruesome discoveries. As the hunt becomes increasingly personal, the media frenzy surrounding the case grows. The murders are a symptom of a sleazy London plagued by growing squalor and social unrest. With time running out, Clifton, Dave Hicks, a would-be victim, and a copycat killer must navigate their own complex web of problems to uncover the truth behind the killings. A tense, suspenseful thriller that explores the darker side of human nature.
