'Victoria Selman is an exciting and powerfully fresh voice' Patricia Cornwell 'Gravely compelling, sophisticated, terrifying' Chris Whitaker 'An absorbing and captivating read, this held me in its thrall from beginning to end. Brilliant!' SJ Watson 'Chilling and compulsive, and with a wicked twist. I loved it' Cara Hunter 'Clever, immersive . . . like nothing I've ever read before' Caz Frear A mind-blowing, unputdownable serial killer thriller of a very different kind - perfect for all fans of Mindhunter and Girl A Twelve-year-old Sophie and her mother, Amelia-Rose, move to London from Massachusetts where they meet the charismatic Matty Melgren, who quickly becomes an intrinsic part of their lives. But as the relationship between the two adults fractures, a serial killer begins targeting young women with a striking resemblance to Amelia-Rose. When Matty is eventually sent down for multiple murder, questions remain as to his guilt -- questions which ultimately destroy both women. Nearly twenty years later, Sophie receives a letter from Battlemouth Prison informing her Matty is dying and wants to meet. It looks like Sophie might finally get the answers she craves. But will the truth set her free -- or bury her deeper? 'An utterly absorbing twisted story and a strong contender for the thriller of 2022' John Marrs 'A creepy, engrossing novel which plunges the dark depths of a serial killer and his crimes' Araminta Hall 'Original and clever - an incredibly tense read' Harriet Tyce

This book was beyond good. Reads like a true crime novel but it‘s fiction and the twist at the end!!! Yeah, if you like psychological thrillers with a serial killer twist add this one to your list! #goldborobook

My July #goldsboro read arrived today. I love this slip cover that the book can slide into. It‘s a numbered and signed edition. This is going to be a great read. Serial killer/suspense. My second favorite genre.

This wasn‘t even on my radar this morning. I was reading some articles about the Harrogate Crime Festival and this one got a few shout outs- so obviously I had to go and get and read immediately.
It reads very much like a true crime book, it‘s dark and very sad from Sophie‘s perspective.
A really good read 👍🏻

This was a really good read. I loved all the clever references to famous serial killer cases. As a true crime fan it added to the story. As for the plot itself it jumps from the present to the past as Sophie takes us back through those dark months. The ending is cleverly done and I liked the added twist. The writing is descriptive and draws you in. A brilliant read especially if you know your serial killers. #Netgalley 4*
