Produktbeschreibung
In 1978 witnessing a tragic accident as a child leaves Benny Smith mentally scarred for many years. In 1987 he is suddenly and unexpectedly released from the mental health institution that had been his home for almost a decade. Haunted by the incident and lacking sufficient support, his condition takes him to dark places in the corners of his mind, igniting a curious fascination. There is something specific he craves which can only be satiated if he sees young people die - it is a validation of sorts. Nottingham CID are puzzled when two children accidentally die in unusual and identical circumstances and only a day apart. Something isn't right. Detective Inspector Stark is suffering from his own demons and when he takes charge of this case, he realises that he and the killer have something in common. Keith Wright, former CID Detective Sergeant, and now author, has won multiple writing awards for his internationally renowned Inspector Stark series of crime thrillers. He is married with four children and lives in Nottingham, England.
