A KILLER CONFESSION

When journalist Danny Hanson answers a call from someone with blood on their hands and a story to share, he tells himself it's the breakthrough of his career. He should have asked himself a different question. Not what could go wrong. But what already has.

THE CALL YOU NEVER FORGET

DCI Matilda Darke is used to the unexpected. But when her phone lights up in the dead of night, the face staring back at her is the last one she could imagine. But their message is deadly.

A RACE AGAINST TIME

This person knows her secrets. They know her team. And as a suspicious package threatens her case, Matilda is forced to ask herself; is the killer close to home?
