Hunting a killer, a female detective is drawn into the abyss…

Liverpool is in the grip of a serial killer. He suffocates his victims using a bin bag, and discards them like refuse on the streets.

After tricking her way through a psychological evaluation, Detective Eleanor Rose has returned to police work.

Her estranged half-sister, Beth Krush, who is also in the force, has not. Rather, she is languishing in hospital with a serious knife wound, battling demons during her sleepless nights.

Both are determined to solve the case. Rose is following her instincts, tracking down a once brilliant psychiatrist, now a homeless drifter, who may know the killer’s identity.

Bedbound, Krush is following a logical approach. Working the little evidence she can garner from loyal colleagues. Profiling the killer.

As the tension in the bleak, fearful, and unforgiving city reaches fever-pitch, nerves will snap. Who will be on the receiving end?

ROUGH SLEEPER is a dark, mind-twisting, emotional ride, with compelling characters and a jaw-dropping climax you won’t forget. Look out for OUTCAST SISTER, the sensational first standalone book in this gripping detective series, and GREY HOOD, the third. And make sure to find THE OTHER DETECTIVE, an enthralling standalone historical mystery also by James Davidson.
