It’s the worst thing Detective Bill Roach has ever seen. The young woman’s body is found beside a busy road. She’s been disembowelled — while she was still alive. Placed on her chest is a cassette player. Inside is a sixty-minute tape, playing just one song over and over again: ‘Mack the Knife’.
Bill will spend the next fifty years trying to catch the vicious serial killer who becomes known as Jack the Knife.
Now
Crown Woods Retirement Home. Eighty-year-old Bill Roach sits at the bedside of elderly Gillian Lake, comforting her as she slips away.
But the post-mortem shows Gillian didn’t die of old age. She was murdered.
Now Bill realises there’s a killer in the retirement home. He never caught Jack the Knife . . . but he’ll catch this killer.
And what Bill discovers will blow your mind with one of the most astonishing twists you’ll read this year.
