Publisher's summary

What if your mother had been writing to a serial killer?

A convicted murderer with a story to tell.

Serial killer Michael Reave - known as the Red Wolf - has been locked in Belmarsh Prison for more than 20 years for the brutal and ritualistic murders of countless women.

A grieving daughter with a secret to unearth.

Ex-journalist Heather Evans returns to her childhood home after her mother’s inexplicable suicide and discovers something chilling - hundreds of letters between her mother and Reave, dating back decades.

A hunt for a killer ready to strike again.

When the body of a woman is found decorated with flowers, just like his victims, Reave is the only person alive who could help. After years of silence, he will speak to Heather, and only Heather.

If she wants to unearth the truth and stop further bloodshed, she’ll have to confront a monster.

Critic reviews

"Reminiscent of Sharp Objects, this chilling British serial killer thriller had me gripped. Filled with tension and twists, Jen Williams manages to deftly unravel the killer’s dark and deadly secrets to an ending that you won’t see coming." (Sarah Pinborough, Sunday Times best-selling author of Behind Her Eyes)

"An unsettling pastoral thriller, which grabs you by the throat and doesn't let go. Part-Midsommar, part-Hereditary, part-Mindhunter - and entirely terrifying." (Abigail Dean, author of Girl A)

"It’s dark as a Grimm fairy tale and brimming with secrets. With its terrifying story of a serial killer, and the woman who’s recently uncovered her mother’s connection to him, this novel will appeal to - and deeply chill - fans of true crime." (Megan Collins, author of The Winter Sister)

"Masterclass in suspense." (The Times)

"Will have you up all night with the lights on." (Elle)

"One of the creepiest serial killer thrillers I’ve encountered in a long time." (Amy McCulloch)
