Book
Description by Author:
The compulsive new novel from the author of
the Sunday Times Number One bestseller The Caller and Gallery of the Dead.
AS ADDICTIVE AS A TV BOXSET!
'Every story one day comes to an end.'
As roommates, they met for the first time in
college. Two of the brightest minds ever to graduate from Stamford Psychology
University.
As adversaries, they met again in Quantico,
Virginia. Robert Hunter had become the head of the LAPD’s Ultra Violent Crimes
Unit. Lucien Folter had become the most prolific and dangerous serial killer
the FBI had ever encountered.
Now, after spending three and a half years
locked in solitary confinement, Lucien has finally managed to break free. And
he’s angry.
For the past three and a half years, Lucien
has thought of nothing else but vengeance.
The person responsible for locking him away
has to pay, he has to suffer.
That person ... is Robert Hunter.
And now it is finally time to execute the
plan.

About
the Author:
Biographies
can be an absolute drag, so I won’t bore anyone with a long life story.
I
was born in Brasilia, Brazil where I spent my childhood and teenage years.
After graduating from high school, I moved to the USA where I studied
psychology with specialization in criminal behaviour. During my University
years I held a variety of odd jobs, ranging from flipping burgers to being part
of an all male exotic dancing group.
I
worked as a criminal psychologist for several years before moving to Los
Angeles, where I swapped the suits and briefcases for ripped jeans, bandanas
and an electric guitar. After a spell playing for several well known glam rock
bands, I decided to try my luck in London, where I was fortunate enough to have
played for a number of famous artists. I toured the world several times as a
professional musician.
A
few years ago I gave it all up to become a full time writer.
