Book description
It is fall in Philadelphia and the mutilated body of a man is found
in one of the poorest neighbourhoods of the city. The victim has been
viciously tortured to death. It's the work of a sadistic mind in free fall.
When homicide detectives Kevin Byrne and Jessica Balzano
investigate, they soon realise that their crime scene is linked to the
past. Eight years ago, another body was found in the same place, in
the same position, killed in the same manner. That case was never
closed. Apart from their killer's unusual calling cards, the crime
scene photos - past and present - are identical.
As another brutalised body appears, then another, it becomes
horrifyingly clear that someone is recreating unsolved murders from
Philadelphia's past in the most sinister of ways. And the killer is
closer than they think...
