Overview
This suspenseful story will appeal to readers of contemporary police procedurals like Tana French’s Dublin Murder series and Jane Harper’s Aaron Falk series.” —Jane Harper, Booklist
Her worst nightmare just returned—but this time she’s ready
1994: When Gardas Julia Harte and Adrian Clancy are called out to a sleepy housing estate in Cork to investigate a noise complaint, they are entirely unprepared for what they find. What happens next will haunt Julia for the rest of her career, leaving her plagued with nightmares and terrified of the dark. There is a serial killer at work in Cork, one as clever as he is deadly. Julia may not be a detective yet, but after the harrowing events of that night, she is determined to be the one to catch him…
2024: Julia Harte has chosen just the right place to disappear. Now retired, with an illustrious career behind her, she has moved to a tiny cottage in a remote part of Ireland, where she hopes to find peace. But then she receives a phone call from her old superintendent—two women have been murdered, their bodies marked and staged, just like in ’94.
It’s happening again. Only this time, the stakes are even higher. Julia must return to Cork to face a vicious killer and the memories that haunt her. Yet Julia is no longer a naive junior officer but a seasoned, tough professional who proves more than a match for any murderer…
Review
Oh! I loved Julia. She is retired now. But, she is brought back to help with this case because she was the one to catch the killer the first time. Now, the original killer has died and someone is copying his MO!
The original killings haunted Julia through most of her life. Now, she thinks she can breathe. But this thought is short lived. She has pulled back into her memories when she is asked to assist. She is just not sure she can handle all the emotions.
This is a story that had me on the edge of my seat. I love a tale that has me guessing. I couldn’t figure out if it was a copycat or if the original killer really was not dead. And the way the author incorporates the two timelines together will keep you twisted up in knots!
