AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'A 14-year-old boy vanishes on his way home from school. His frantic mother receives a ransom call: pay or else. It's only hours before the deadline, and the police have no leads. Enter Timothy Blake, codename Hangman. Blake is a genius, known for solving impossible cases. He's also a psychopath—the FBI's last resort. But this time Blake might have met his match. The kidnapper is more cunning and ruthless than anyone he's faced before. And Blake has been assigned a new partner, a woman linked to the past he's so desperate to forget.

'Timothy Blake has a secret; one so dark he will do anything to keep it hidden. And he also has a price. Every time he saves a life, he takes one . . . Hangman is a mesmerising dissection of the criminal mind and a bulletproof thriller.'

'Timothy Blake, ex-consultant for the FBI, now works in bodydisposal for a local crime lord. One night he stumbles across a body he wasn't supposed to find. He can't resist taking a bite. When the FBI calls Blake in to investigate the man's disappearance, Blake is the only one who knows the man is dead and in his freezer. Then another man goes missing. And another. And another. There's a serial killer in Houston, Texas, and Blake is the only one who knows it for sure. His investigation takes him to a prestigious university, a sex doll factory, a sprawling landfill on Houston's outskirts and a secret hideaway in the woods.

'As they hunt the killer together, FBI agent Reese Thistle starts to warm to Blake—but she also gets closer and closer to discovering his gruesome secret. This is cause for anxiety among the gangsters who employ Blake to dispose of their victims. It would be better for them to murder Blake than to risk exposure. Can Blake uncover the killer, without giving away his own dark secrets? A confounding, intriguing and unexpected thriller from the author of Hangman.'
