About the book
There is no peace for the wicked and, therefore, even less for Detective Inspector Anjelica Henley. There is a serial killer rampaging through the streets of London. The day she returns to active duty in the Serial Crimes Unit, she is immediately transferred to the scene of a ruthless crime. On the banks of the Thames lie the dismembered remains of two victims.
The modus operandi of the person who has carried out such a singular execution bears an eerie resemblance to the evil arts of Peter Olivier, the infamous puzzle murderer, behind bars for two years thanks to the good offices of the inspector herself… Something doesn’t add up. When Henley finally verifies in situ that a usurper and outstanding student is little less than vindicated the customs and customs of such a relentless executioner – the arrangement of the limbs composing a puzzle bears the unmistakable imprint of the prisoner – he decides to personally take charge of the case.
As the body count increases, the detective faces a new threat. Olivier runs away. Can Henley stop the copycat killer before the escapee finds a way to get to him first? Or will she be the next victim? Henley knows that having Olivier may be the best asset to stop the copycat killer. But when Olivier finds out about the new crimes, the last thing he thinks about is helping the person who put him behind bars… Will it take a murderer to catch the murderer?
In a world of violence and inequality, the search for justice takes many forms. The Puzzle Killer is a fascinating and deliciously creepy police procedural that not only entertains, but delivers a message of equality and change. And from start to finish, Nadine Matheson gives us a vivid portrait of London’s seedier side, showing readers every nook and cranny of Deptford and… all the secrets the river can spit out.
