Val McDermid is a top-class crime writer - she rarely fails to deliver and I am pleased to say, this book is great. Dr Tony Hill and DCI Jordan are back - hurrah!  Tony Hill is the profiler who has retired to a backwater university to lick his wounds after the traumatising experiences he has suffered in the past. He is drawn back to the fray when his old love interest, DCI Jordan, becomes involved in a dangerous undercover mission in Eastern Europe. Running parallel to this is a creepy serial killer who Tony Hill tries to find and unmask. It is a very entertaining novel and all fans of McDermid will relish it
