The Mermaids Singing
Series: Tony Hill Series
Up until now, the only serial killers Tony Hill had encountered were behind bars. This one's different - this one's on the loose.
Four men have been found mutilated and tortured. As fear grips the city, the police turn to clinical psychologist Tony Hill for a profile of the killer. But soon Tony becomes the unsuspecting target in a battle of wits and wills where he has to use every ounce on his professional skill and personal nerve to survive.
A tense, beautifully written, psychological thriller, The Mermaids Singing explores the tormented mind of a serial killer unlike any the world of fiction has ever seen.
