Her worst nightmare just returned—but this time she's ready
1994: When Gardas Julia Harte and Adrian Clancy are called out to a sleepy housing estate in Cork to investigate a noise complaint, they are entirely unprepared for what they find. What happens next will haunt Julia for the rest of her career, leaving her plagued with nightmares and terrified of the dark. There is a serial killer at work in Cork, one as clever as he is deadly. Julia may not be a detective yet, but after the harrowing events of that night, she is determined to be the one to catch him...
2024: Julia Harte has chosen just the right place to disappear. Now retired, with an illustrious career behind her, she has moved to a tiny cottage in a remote part of Ireland, where she hopes to find peace. But then she receives a phone call from her old superintendent—two women have been murdered, their bodies marked and staged, just like in '94.
It's happening again. Only this time, the stakes are even higher. Julia must return to Cork to face a vicious killer and the memories that haunt her. Yet Julia is no longer a naive junior officer but a seasoned, tough professional who proves more than a match for any murderer...

Shortly after her sixtieth birthday, retired Irish Garda officer Julia Harte receives two pieces of news: the serial killer she put behind bars 30 years ago has just died, and now investigators, baffled by a new copycat killer, need her expertise. Still traumatized by the events of the past, Julia reluctantly comes out of retirement, leaving her cottage in a picturesque village on Ireland's east coast to travel to Cork, where she is plunged into a race to outwit a clever, relentless murderer who, just like the killer of three decades ago, chillingly chooses victims that are close to Julia. Readers are treated to two stories here: flashbacks to Julia in 1994 as an ambitious new garda working to solve the original serial-killer case, and the seasoned, present-day Julia, who must summon a career's worth of experience and hard-won wisdom to outwit a new killer. This suspenseful story will appeal to readers of contemporary police procedurals like Tana French's Dublin Murder series and Jane Harper's Aaron Falk series.COPYRIGHT(2024) Booklist, ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.
