Publisher's Summary

On a cold winter's morning, the body of a young boy is discovered in Epping Forest.

The body is pristine and peaceful, his head resting gently on a pillow, an angel pendant clenched in his small fist. It is a murder as carefully planned as it is brutal, and there's one person DI Bishop needs back on his team to help solve such a calculated crime.

Holly Wakefield, clinical psychologist for the Met Police, is better than anyone Bishop knows at getting inside the brains of psychopaths. But with the body count rising, it's going to take all Holly's strength to dive into the murky mind of someone who preys on young boys.

And all Bishop's resolve to stop the serial killer before any more angels are put to their rest.

The second gripping thriller in the Holly Wakefield series, from the acclaimed author of When Darkness Calls. A dark and twisted serial killer thriller perfect for fans of Val McDermid, Mark Billingham, Stuart MacBride and TV crime series Luther.

good

Basically,same feelings as with the first in the series, cheesy cinematic fun.
The villain in this one was just repellant. Anything with kids, you know? Shudder.
So, there is this one scene (that we allll see coming) that takes inspiration from a real case. Yeah, those tubes? Someone did that. Look up Dr Carl Tanzler if you want to feel both enraged and nauseous.
Anyway, it was a fun one, despite the grim subject manner (and the fact that the mystery and the twists were extremely obvious. Maybe because it covers well trod ground). I enjoyed it.
The narrator's voice bothered me slightly less this time.

Oh, also, the prose is a little too "lush" for my taste.
