Some killers are caught.
Others simply go into hiding…
DCI Liam Brodie is no stranger to horror. Seven years ago, he led the hunt for a murderer who killed seven women, leaving their bodies out on display like some kind of morbid exhibition. Never any witnesses; never any clue as to who he was.
The press called him The Embalmer. Brodie called him a monster.
Now, seven years later, the killings have started again. Same method. Same pattern. Same nightmare.
Brodie is called back to Fife to lead the investigation. But this time, the killer isn’t just repeating the past—he’s rewriting it. And Brodie isn’t just hunting a serial killer… He’s being hunted.
About John Carson
Originally from Edinburgh, I moved to NY in 2006 with my wife - who is American - and my two daughters, who were 10 and 7 at the time. I met Debbie, my second wife, online in 2001. My daughters are from my first marriage, and Debbie has an adult son. I have been writing for a long time, writing my first crime novel in 1997.
After being taken on by an agency in 2012, the agent then abruptly left the agency in 2013. A year later, in November 2014 I decided to self publish my books.
I started with the DI Frank Miller series, followed by DCI Harry McNeil and DCI Sean Bracken. I decided on writing DCI James Craig and have him move from London to Fife. I have also written two Calvin Stewart books (from the McNeil series) and four US - based thrillers.
