Es gibt einen Serienkiller, der das Leben von Tony Hill geprägt hat, wie wohl kein anderer: Jacko Vance, der für den Tod von siebzehn jungen Mädchen verantwortlich ist. Und nun will Jacko Vance Rache für die Jahre, die er im Gefängnis verbracht hat. Rache an den Menschen, die ihn dort hingebracht haben: Tony Hill und Carol Jordan.
'To write one brilliant book is hard. To write 25 is a miracle. . . flawless and superb' Sunday Express

There is one serial killer who has shaped and defined police profiler Tony Hill's life. One serial killer whose evil surpasses all others. One serial killer who has the power to chill him to the bone: Jacko Vance.

And now Jacko is back in Tony's life. Even more twisted and cunning than ever before, he is focused on wreaking revenge on Tony - and DCI Carol Jordan - for the years he has spent in prison.

Tony doesn't know when Jacko will strike, or where. All he knows is that Jacko will cause him to feel fear like he has never known before - and devastate his life in ways he cannot imagine. . .

An utterly gripping and chilling tour-de-force, The Retribution is the ideal introduction or re-introduction to the world of Tony Hill and Carol Jordan. It is an unforgettable read.
