Broken Bones

They thought they were safe. They were wrong. The murder of a young prostitute and a baby found abandoned on the same winter night signals the start of a disturbing investigation for Detective Kim Stone - one which brings her face to face with someone from her own horrific childhood. As three more sex workers in the Black Country are murdered in quick succession, each death more violent than the last, Kim and her team realise that the initial killing was no one-off frenzied attack, but a twisted serial killer preying on the vulnerable. At the same time, the search begins for the desperate woman who left her new-born baby at the station - but what at first looks like a tragic abandonment soon takes an even more sinister turn. When another young woman goes missing, the two investigations bring the team into a terrifying, hidden world, and a showdown puts Kim's life at risk as secrets from her own past come to light. As Kim battles her own demons, can she stop the killer, before another life is lost? A totally gripping crime thriller from the number one bestseller - you will be hooked until the final jaw-dropping twist. Can be read as a standalone.
