One hell of a ride.
THE TIMES
A refreshing standout . . . With a surprisingly twisted ending, this is addictively dark.
HEAT MAGAZINE
A distinctive detective, a striking setting, and macabre murders – what more could a reader ask for?
JOHN CONNOLLY, Sunday Times bestselling author of the Charlie Parker series
A twisty mystery, a devious killer and a brilliantly original investigator – Killing Jericho is an absolute cracker.
T.M. LOGAN, bestselling author of THE CATCH

Scott Jericho thought he’d worked his last case. Fresh out of jail, the disgraced former detective is forced to seek refuge with the fairground family he once rejected.

Then a series of bizarre murders comes to light – deaths that echo a century-old fairground legend. The police can’t connect the victims. But Jericho knows how the legend goes; that more murders are certain to follow.

As Jericho unpicks the deadly mystery, a terrifying question haunts him. As a direct descendant of one of the victims in the legend, is Jericho next on the killer’s list?
