Informazioni sull?autore

The research for Simon Kernick's novels is what makes them so authentic. His extensive list of contacts in the police force has been built up over more than a decade. It includes long serving officers in Special Branch, the National Crime Squad (now SOCA), and the Anti-Terrorist Branch, all of whom have plenty of tales to tell.

He is in his thirties, lives near London and has two young children.

Dalla quarta di copertina

'From the moment I open my eyes, I know it's going to be a bad day. The room's stifling hot; my head feels like a dwarf on speed's dancing a jig on it, and the blood ... Well, the blood's everywhere.

It feels as if I've stepped into the middle of someone else's nightmare.

But I'm wrong. This is my nightmare. And it's only just beginning.'

'Simon Kernick writes with his foot pressed hard on the pedal. Hang on tight!'

Harlan Coben

'Great plots, great characters, great action. Simon Kernick might just be the best of Britain's new-wave crime writers.' Lee Child

As he staggers from the bed the phone rings, and a voice tells him to press play on the room's DVD machine.The film shows Tyler killing Leah. Then he's told to go to an address in East London where he's to deliver a briefcase and await further instructions.

There's no way out. The evidence against him looks rock-solid.

Tyler's heading into terrible danger. If he's to survive the next 12 hours, he must find out who really murdered Leah and why.
