It is late at night on a notorious council estate in east London.A van - garishly painted with a grinning clown's face on the side - is being driven erratically.When the police pull over the driver to question him,they discover, inside the van,the body of a young woman.
A murder suspect . . . an arrest. . . a confession . . .
A case done and dusted? But their suspect claims his victim is not his first,but third.Two unsolved murders,three confessions.
Five years earlier,a 13-year-old girl disappeared in broad daylight on a busy London street.DCS James Langton headed the investigation and left no stone unturned.The fact that case was not solved has haunted him ever since.The enquiry has opened up again but, unable to lead it due to ill health,Langton brings in DCI Anna Travis to oversee this complex case.Meanwhile the murder team begins the laborious task of verifying the details of the confessions and uncovering the identity of the second victim.
And then the suspect changes his story.They know they have a murderer in custody - but is he a serial killer of just a compulsive liar?
In her chilling new crime thriller (then 2012), Lynda La Plante digs deep into the warped mind of a possible killer,drawing us brilliantly into an investigation that spirals into horror and heartbreak.
