Thriller
From a distance, they seem to be sleeping. Three bodies,
sitting propped up against the ancient stones of Hadrian’s
Wall. A closer look reveals the horror of their too-white
faces, and the ring of vivid red bruises around each neck. The victims were found by schoolgirl Isla Bell, out on an
early morning run along the historic site. That day changed
the small, close-knit community of Briganton forever, and it
also shaped the course of Isla’s life. Twenty years later,
she’s a professor of criminal psychology at the University
of Northumberland. She specializes in studying the brain
function of psychopaths and serial killers, wrestling with
the question that still haunts her: why? Why did
Heath McGowan kill those people—and two more besides—before
he was finally caught by Isla’s police detective father? At last, Isla has a chance to get answers. Heath, previously
unforthcoming about the murders, agrees to take part in her
research. Isla’s husband, Ramsey—the only one of Heath’s
victims to survive—cautions her against the meeting. But no
matter how ready Isla feels to peer within a killer’s mind,
there is no way to prepare for the fresh horror about to
engulf Briganton. Another body is found, displayed just as
before . . . and then another. Is this a copycat, someone
inspired by or receiving help from the serial killer behind
bars? Or could the truth be darker still? A brilliantly twisted thriller—gripping, atmospheric, and
skillfully layered, I Am Watching will keep readers
guessing until the very end.
