McDermid, Val
The Wire In The Blood
Series: Tony Hill Series
Awards: Winner of World Gold Medal for Drama at the New York Television Festival 2006
Dr Tony Hill, head of the new National Profiling Task Force, sets his team an exercise: they are given the details of missing teenagers and asked to discover any possible links between the cases. Only one officer comes up with a theory - a theory that is ridiculed by the group... until one of their number is murdered and mutilated.
For Tony Hill, the murder becomes a matter of personal revenge, and, joined by collegue, Carol Jordan, he embarks on a campaign of psychological terrorism - a game where hunter and hunted can all too easily be reversed.
