MEET DETECTIVE JACK MACINTOSH IN THIS BRILLIANT NEW CRIME SERIES.
An absolutely gripping crime thriller with a massive twist.
Please note this book was previously published as The Fifteen.
Eighty-one-year-old Eddie Wakefield is found brutally murdered at the nursing home where he lives. Crudely carved into his flesh — while he was still alive — is the number fifteen.
Detective Jack MacIntosh and his team are determined to track down the ruthless killer of this frail elderly man. But the investigation is leading nowhere.
Then the second body is discovered. The victim was stabbed to death in their own home. Again, the number fifteen is etched into the dead man’s flesh.
A single clue leads to St Bartholomew��s School for Boys, a grim and forbidding institution on England’s south coast — and a series of shocking secrets stretching back more than forty years.
What is the significance of the number fifteen . . . and is Jack prepared for the horrifying truth?
Perfect for fans of Helen H. Durrant, Biba Pearce, Lynda La Plante, Angela Marsons and Rachel McLean.

THE DETECTIVE
Detective Inspector Jack MacIntosh is a dedicated police officer, the one person you would want to fight your corner. But he has been known to cross the line to get the job done. As a four-year-old boy he discovered his mother’s body swinging from a light fitting. Jack and his younger brother were taken into care — Jack did OK, his brother not so much. A bit of a loner, Jack has never married — although plenty of women would like to give it a shot. He lives in a charming mews cottage in central London. No one is quite sure how he can afford it on a detective’s salary.
