When two decapitated bodies are discovered in the garden of a sleepy village in North Yorkshire, Detective Chief Inspector Victoria Adams begins an investigation to track down their killer. Little does she realise that she is about to uncover her worst nightmare in the shape of a predator of the most depraved kind. One who is without conscience, and one who not only gets his kicks from the torture and killing of vulnerable women but is driven by his all-consuming desire for revenge on Victoria’s boss, Superintendent Sean O’Neill, who heads up the North Yorkshire Major Incident Team.
Along with her partner, pathologist Dr Miriam DeSilva, and the rest of the MIT, Victoria attempts to track down the killer (or killers) of the bodies in the garden and those responsible for the more recent deaths of three young women. The perpetrator has managed to evade capture for decades through what he believes to be a fool proof strategy.
But for how much longer can he evade capture and be allowed to kill freely?
David Kirk is the creator of children's books that follow the character Miss Spider. Before writing books, he made colorful toys that were sold in hand-painted boxes. He was urged to write children's books when his toys caught the interest of a book packager. It wasn't difficult to figure out what he would use as characters in his stories: his daughter, Violet, had a liking for bugs. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_K...
