A violent attacker is on the loose. His calling card: a tattoo on his victimsβ skin. With no witnesses and no evidence left at the crime scenes, it will take all of the National Crime Agencyβs resources to track him down.
At the head of the investigation, codenamed Operation Juniper, Senior Investigator Joanne Stuart knows that the clock is ticking. The time between abductions is decreasing and the perpetrator grows ever more brazen. She fears it wonβt be long before his assaults turn deadly.
As the hunt closes in, Joβs already troubled personal life is put under further pressure. With danger closer than she thinks, just how far will Jo go to solve the caseβand at what cost?
