About this ebook
A serial killer is at large. One item ties the victims together: in each case, their bra has been removed. Can DCI Harry Brock and DS Dave Pool crack a disturbing case?
On a hot Tuesday morning in June, Detective Chef Inspector Harry Brock is called to Richmond Park in south-west London, where the body of a young woman has been found, strangled and half-naked, in the Isabella Plantation. The killer fled the scene with nothing – except the victim’s bra.
The discovery of further bodies, all women in their twenties, and all with missing bras, suggests a serial killer is at loose. With the help of Detective Superintendent Dave Poole and the rest of his team, it’s not long before Harry uncovers a dark web of lies, betrayal, desire and deceit. But can he break the deadlock to catch a determined killer?
