Über diesen Titel

 FROM THE AUTHOR OF THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER IN THE BLINK OF AN EYE
Winner of the Theakston Old Peculier Crime Novel of the Year 2024
Winner of the Crime Writers’ Association ILP John Creasey (New Blood) Dagger 2024

One detective driven by instinct, the other by logic.
It will take both to find a killer who knows the true meaning of fear . . .

When the body of a man is found crucified at the top of Mount Judd, DCS Kat Frank and AIDE Lock – the world’s first AI detective – are thrust into the spotlight with their first live case.

But when they discover another man dead – also crucified – it appears that the killer is only just getting started. When the Future Policing Unit issues an extraordinary warning to local men to avoid drinking in pubs, being out alone late at night and going home with strangers, they face a hostile media frenzy. Whilst they desperately search for connections between the victims, time is running out for them to join the dots and prevent another death.

And if Kat and Lock know anything, it’s that killers rarely stop – until they are made to.

Kritikerstimmen

‘As brilliantly plotted and innovative as In The Blink Of An Eye, AIDE Lock & DCS Frank are back in Leave No Trace. This time attempting to solve horrific murders in the dead of winter; the story chilled me to the bone and I couldn’t turn the pages fast enough. Callaghan writes with such intelligence; interspersing humour with moments of utter heartbreak’ Nikki Smith

‘I am rapidly becoming a huge Jo Callaghan fan. Leave No Trace was every bit as smart, compelling and insightful as her debut, and where these books really excel is in the emotional weight they bring to the thriller genre. A terrific read!’ Gytha Lodge

‘With Leave No Trace, Jo Callaghan cements her status as a crime fiction force to be reckoned with. Emotional and enthralling, with great dashes of humour throughout. It also includes one of the most heart-stopping yet satisfying endings I've read in a long time. More please, Jo!’ Caz Frear


'Jo Callaghan has done it again in this intricately plotted, humorous and incredibly moving thriller. As well as being a gripping, fast-moving story in its own right, it has so much to say about the complementary roles of logic and emotion in policing (and life!), the complexities of grief and what it means to be human. I absolutely loved it' Laura Marshall


‘Balanced, nuanced, intelligent, provocative’ Amanda Reynolds

Your whole concept is fantastic so why do you need the gruesome murder method? The first book had a more scientific background. The unrealistic murders distract from the quality of the book making it more like a horror story rather than an intelligent technothriller.

I like the character development including Lock‘s. I look forward to the third book.

Fantastic concept

I find the story is not just a detective story, there is a statement that the author wants to make.

There is a statement

Enjoyable follow up to the AI agent Lock helping the Warwickshire police on cases.
The murders are grisly, the main suspect (at least to me) was quite obvious, but there was much pleasure to be derived of the premise of AI and humans working together, and how a very likeable team develops and - possibly- the start of consciousness?

Gripping and clever (but a bit grisly)
