See Review by
Liz Lees
Journalist Jack McEvoy's twin brother, a Denver homicide detective, has just killed himself. Or so it seems.
But when Jack begins to investigate police suicides, a disturbing pattern emerges. He soon suspects that a serial murderer is at work - a devious cop killer who's left a coast-to-coast trail of 'suicide notes' drawn from
the work of Edgar Allan Poe. It's the story of a lifetime - except that 'the Poet' already seems to know that Jack is trailing him.
'His methods of killing and eluding detection are infernally ingenious, adding an intellectual charge to the visceral kick of the hunt' New York Times
'The real thing, and the best of its kind since Silence of the Lambs ... An unputdownable masterclass in thriller writing, this will become a classic' Time Out
'The most chilling psychopath since Hannibal Lecter' Evening Standard
