Description

The Amazon Number-One Bestselling Series Continues...
"A gripping crime thriller with fantastic twists and turns. I couldn't put it down!" Simon McCleave

When a chamber of horrors is revealed during building work at Norfolk's County Hall, dozens of bones arranged in an arcane pattern inside a long-forgotten cellar, everybody expects the worst -- until a forensic team discovers that the human remains are decades old.

After the horror of his kidnapping at the hands of Hollenbeck, DCI Kett isn't in a hurry to return to work. But Superintendent Clare thinks these historic crimes are the perfect way to ease him back into the job.

The case isn't as cold as it looks, though. Soon Kett finds himself on the trail of a ruthless and obsessive killer, and caught in the crosshairs of one of the most powerful families in the city.

Occult rituals, cold-hearted revenge and bloody retribution -- it falls once again to the Extreme Crime Task Force to solve a case that cuts right to the bone.

Full of thrilling action, compulsive mystery and side-splitting humour, this is DCI Kett at his best, and "Guaranteed to keep you awake all night!" J M Dalgliesh. This edition also contains a DCI Kett short story!

Alex Smith wrote his first book when he was six. It wasn't particularly good, but it did have some supernatural monsters in it. His latest books, the DCI Robert Kett thrillers, have monsters in them too, although these monsters are very human, and all the more terrifying for it. In between, he has published fourteen novels for children and teenagers under his full name, Alexander Gordon Smith -- including the number one bestselling series Escape From Furnace, which is loved by millions of readers worldwide and which is soon to become a motion picture. He lives in Norwich with his wife and three young daughters.
