An embittered and disillusioned policeman takes revenge on society in this unputdownable serial killer thriller.
Retired from the force, Detective Superintendent Jeffrey Brandt goes native. He stabs a woman but holds back from killing her. Frustrated that no one takes any notice, he ups his game. Next time, he’ll kill.
Brandt fully knows how the police work. He’ll use this knowledge to win a sick game; after all, he’s chosen the rules.
The crime scenes are spotless, Brandt’s covered his tracks. There is no forensic evidence. Yet each killing has his unmistakeable print.
Faced with the challenge of discovering his identity is DCI Stella Johnson. Quick-witted and uncompromising, she rises to Brandt’s macabre challenge. But if she finds the killer, what will she do given that he is always one step ahead?
Who will win this mortal battle of wits between hunter and hunted?
ONE STEP AHEAD is the first book in a trilogy featuring DSI Brandt and DCI Johnson. It is set in Nottingham and further afield in England.
It is FREE with Kindle Unlimited and coming soon in paperback.
Really enjoyed the story. Fast paced plot, with character development deep enough to make you care about the fate of the major players. I could see this book being adapted to a 4 part BBC crime drama easily. I'm looking forward to reading the rest of the books in this series.
