A copycat killer shows frightening similarities to Jeffrey Dahmer, Ed Kemper, and Charles Manson in this serial killer thriller for fans of Harlan Coben and Mindhunter.
“Sam Holland’s stellar debut is very much its own beast . . . a lethal new predator in an alluringly old-school skin.” —AJ Finn, New York Times–bestselling author
Detectives Cara Elliott and Noah Deakin are on the case of a series of seemingly unconnected murders, each different in method, but each shocking and brutal. As the body count increases, they can’t ignore the details that echo famous cases of the past—Manson, Kemper, Dahmer, and more. As Elliott and Deakin get closer to unmasking the killer, the murders are moving closer to home.
Meanwhile, Jessica Ambrose is on the run. She’s been implicated as the arsonist who killed her neglectful husband and injured her young daughter. With the help of disgraced and suspended detective Nate Griffin, Jess discovers a shocking link between her case and that of the ultimate copycat killer working on his horrifying masterpiece.
