'Murdered people don't kill themselves . . .'
A quiet night on a country road. The stillness shattered by a car engulfed in flames, and a burned body discovered in the driver's seat. As the investigation unfolds, DCI Carol Jordan and psychological profiler Tony Hill quickly realise that this is more than just a tragic accident. And so begins the hunt for a truly terrifying killer, someone who believes he is invisible, untraceable and untouchable.
As other victims are found to have met the same terrible fate, and with more women at risk, Tony and Carol are drawn into a dark and twisted web of fear and revenge that will force them to question their own ideas of justice . . .
Discover the pulse-pounding new novel from the inimitable queen of crime and number one bestseller, Val McDermid, featuring two of the most iconic and unforgettable characters in crime fiction: Tony Hill and Carol Jordan

Praise for Val McDermid:
“Powerful . . . McDermid’s prose is pure pleasure to read . . . The plot is tight, the story is thrilling, the ending is as satisfying as they come . . . A master operating at the height of her considerable powers. Prepare to be swept away.”―Mystery Scene on Splinter the Silence
“Hill and Jordan dominate as brilliantly as ever.”―Times Saturday Review (UK) on Cross and Burn
“Smooth. Confident. Deeply satisfying. What else can you say about McDermid’s writing? . . . The Jordan-Hill relationship remains the star of the show . . . It’s a match made in heaven amid hell on earth.”―Entertainment Weekly (editor’s choice) on The Torment of Others
“Val McDermid . . . has the ruthless psychological scalpel that forms part of the equipment of all good novelists, whatever their genre. And, fortunately for us, she knows just how to use it.”―Guardian (UK) on The Retribution
“Dynamic . . . [A] treat.”―People on Splinter the Silence
“McDermid is as smooth a practitioner of crime fiction as anyone out there . . . She’s the best we’ve got.”―New York Times Book Review on Killing the Shadows
“There are few other crime writers in the same league as Val McDermid. Her stories are ingeniously plotted . . . Another terrific and intricate suspense novel.”―Washington Post on Out of Bounds
“The novel is as rich in character development as it is in plot . . . We hold our breath as [the killer] plots his next murder and the team scrambles to find out who he is and what he plans to do.

“The series . . . gets better and better. . . . Hill and Jordan, whether together or apart, are fascinating characters.”―Bookreporter.com on Cross and Burn
