Insidious Intent
Synopsis
Shortlisted for the Theakston Old Peculier Crime Novel of the Year.
Number one bestselling author, Val McDermid, returns with her pulse-pounding, suspenseful new novel featuring two of the most distinctive and iconic characters in crime fiction: Tony Hill and Carol Jordan.
Murdered people don’t kill themselves…
A quiet night on a country road. The stillness shattered by a car engulfed in flames, and a burned body discovered in the driver's seat. As the investigation unfolds, DCI Carol Jordan and psychological profiler Tony Hill quickly realise that this is more than just a tragic accident.
Delving deeper into the case, they begin the dangerous hunt for a most sinister killer who believes he is invisible, untraceable and untouchable with the power to inflict untold fear and pain on victims.
As other victims are found to have met the same terrible fate, and with more women at risk, Tony and Carol are drawn into a dark and twisted web of fear and revenge that will force them to question their own ideas of justice . . .
Book Ten in the Tony Hill and Carol Jordan series.
