A SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER
A RICHARD&JUDY BOOK CLUB PICK FOR SPRING 2017
When the body of a young girl is found hanging from a tree, the only clue the police have is an airline tag around her neck. It reads Im travelling alone.
In response, police investigator Holger Munch is immediately charged with assembling a special homicide unit. But to complete the team, he must track down his former partner, Mia Krüger a brilliant but troubled detective who has retreated to a solitary island with plans to kill herself.
Reviewing the file, Mia finds something new a thin line carved into the dead girls fingernail: the number 1. She knows that this is only the beginning. To save other children from the same fate, she must find a way to cast aside her own demons and stop this murderer from becoming a serial killer.
