One icy cold morning, the butchered remains of a woman are discovered stuffed into a bin. DI Kelly Porter knows this is the work of a deranged and dedicated killer. One who has struck before and will again.

Kevin Flint is an odd young man. He explores the hidden corners of the Lake District, and likes to creep around and watch. Dark, depraved things excite him. But will he cross the line from bystander to perpetrator?

Despite her personal life taking unexpected turns, Kelly's detective instincts tell her that the answers lie with Kevin if only she knew the right questions to ask. But will Kelly miss her chance and have blood on her hands?

A stunning new DI Kelly Porter crime novel from million copy bestseller Rachel Lynch, perfect for fans of Patricia Gibney, L. J. Ross and Angela Marsons.
