The best yet in this sterling series. The author takes us to London and a historic cold case which is enmeshed with the major case which has been woven through this series - the Nine Elms Cannibal. This is such a clever and satisfying mystery to solve with a really good red herring or two to make it extra interesting, I loved the complexities presented by the podcast and the characters linked to the case. This author makes characters come to life so clearly and colourfully that it seems you could reach out and touch them, and he has created some new monsters in this book. It is a testament to his capabilities in character creation that I always read these books and find the time and energy to loathe Tristan’s sister, Sarah so much, even when the focus is often gory and gut-wrenching murders. Truly, such a wonderful example of this incredibly talented author’s work. I can’t wait to see what next in this series.

This is a book I found hard to put down, and kept me guessing until the very end! Loved this book, as I love all of Robert's book. Always a five star author for me! Thank you.
