The Kill List - (Inspector Anjelica Henley Thriller) by Nadine Matheson (Hardcover)

Book Synopsis

He will come for them, one by one...Five shocking murders

Twenty-five years ago, DCI Harry Rhimes arrested Andrew Streeter for the brutal murders of five young people. Streeter's "kill list" of victims was found in his home, and he was convicted of all five crimes.

A legacy under threat

Now, Streeter's convictions are being overturned, as new evidence implies the original investigation was corrupt. No one is more shocked than DI Henley. Because this case is personal; Rhimes was her old boss, and he's no longer alive to defend himself. But when the killings start up again, Henley must face the truth: Rhimes got it wrong twenty-five years ago.

A hunt for a killer

Henley and her team reopen the original murder cases, but they must put their personal feelings to one side. Because the real killer is still out there, and he's working his way through a new kill list...
