His break-ins are careful. His attacks are savage. His confidence is growing . . .

DI Zoe Dolan is tracking a stalker who brutally attacks women in their own homes. With no idea how he gets in, or who he’ll target next, the case is at a dead end – until a tip-off from a confidential helpline.

But instead of helping, the new information drags Zoe deeper into the darkness. As the psyche of a vicious criminal threatens to drown her, the traumas of the past she’s never escaped creep closer and closer.

Now, for Zoe and the other women of the city, nowhere is safe. Particularly their own bedroom in the dead of night . . .

WE LOVE THIS BOOK
"The book rocks along at 90mph, until the car crash of an ending leaves the survivors shaken but alive. Don't miss it."
Mark Timlin, BUZZ
Exciting and well written - Mosby excels at catching you off guard. This is a highly recommended read but you may have to leave the light on afterwards.
SUNDAY MIRROR
Mosby has the talent to build both physical and psychological suspense. And he proves once again that he really knows how to work the strings.
Kirkus
Mosby expertly intertwines the main plot lines with several subplots in this psychologically attuned thriller
Publishers Weekly
Mosby joins Ken Bruen, Mo Hayder, Val McDermid, and others on the dark side of UK crime fiction; his thrillers build suspense superbly, but his real strength is in character development. All his characters, particularly the women, are well drawn andcomplex, without a cliché in the bunch.
