A tense novel from a fast-rising star, Sam Holland, “The Twenty” fuses a chilling race-against-time with blood-curdling crime fiction. For fans of Harlan Coben and Thomas Harris, Sam Holland offers readers a page-turning serial killer thriller.
When DCI Adam Bishop arrives at the crime scene in the dead of night, the sight of the body is bad enough-but what Adam notices next chills him to his core. More bodies surface. And the spray-painted numbers daubed above the corpses reveal the horrific truth: the killer is counting down. But to what end? Adam has no idea, until Dr. Romilly Cole knocks on his door with damning evidence pointing to a series of murders twenty-five years earlier, a case she knows intimately from her past. Now, it's personal, and the next knock on his door could be fatal.
