Book description
Somebody's got muder down to a fine art... A gory, gripping thriller by
Philip Caveney. Freelance photographer Danny Weston has made a grisly
discovery. While taking pictures for a forthcoming exhibition, he finds
a man's body hanging from the rafters of a deserted railway arch.
Despite his horror, he reaches instinctively for his camera, before
summoning the police. Seeing an opportunity to draw crowds to the
exhibition, Danny's manager persuades him to include the shots. But is
the pursuit of such success worth the trouble? Danny soon finds himself
a police suspect, and becomes embroiled in a twilight world of
transvestism, tattoo parlours and porno movie-making. Who is the cunning
and merciless killer? What connects the seemingly random victims? And
what does any of this have to do with ancient Aztec mythology?
Unfortunately, Danny may not survive long enough to work out the
answers. Philip Caveney was born in North Wales in 1951. The son of an
RAF officer, he spent much of his childhood travelling the length and
breadth of Britain and spent several years in Malaysia and Singapore.
His first novel, The Sins of Rachel Ellis, was published in 1977. Since
then, he has published many novels (or 'head movies' as he prefers to
call them) and a series of children's books that have sold all over the
world. He lives in Heaton Moor, Stockport and is currently working on
his next book.
