Chasing Darkness
Three years ago Elvis Cole's actions may have freed a killer. Now three more young women are dead...
'Crais is on top form ... a first-rate puzzle, with many twists and nothing quite as it seems' SUNDAY TELEGRAPH
The brand new Elvis Cole novel from Sunday Times and New York Times bestselling author. Robert Crais' reputation grows with each book, and he always receives brilliant reviews: 'Crais is a crime writer of incredible talent - his novels are not only suspenseful and deeply atmospheric ... they are very hard to put down' Dan Brown. 'Utterly compelling. As good as they come' Literary Review. 'So good it gives you goosebumps' Evening Standard. 'Yet more tough, cracking stuff from Crais' Daily Mirror. 'The narrative is taut, the menace palpable, the suspense unbearable' Daily Telegraph. 'Read this, then read all his others' Daily Mirror. 'The story moves along at top speed ... A must from first page to last' Independent. 'Sustained, skilful and thrilling ... So good you'll want to shout about it' Literary Review.
It is fire season and the hills of Los Angeles are burning. As the Police and Fire Departments evacuate the inhabitants, they find something no one expected: the days-old corpse of a middle-aged recluse who apparently committed suicide. Then comes an even more horrible discovery. Clutched in his lap is a photo album containing photographs of seven young women who have been murdered. Each photograph was taken only moments after the women were killed and could only have been taken by the killer.
One murder per year for seven years, their bodies found in different parts of the city. LAPD homicide detectives had never connected the seven murders. But now, with the discovery of the 'death album', there is a link.
Only one suspect had been charged in any of those cases but, with evidence supplied by Elvis Cole, in the end he walked free. That suspect was the suicide now discovered in the fire...and now the police are out for Cole.
Chasing Darkness weaves a gripping tale of suspense, uncovering layers of intrigue hidden behind every corner.
