The Hunt for the Silver Killer

‘A truly astonishing murder mystery - this is proper journalism’ – Jeremy Clarkson
‘A book set to become a classic of the true crime genre. This is a page-turning thriller I couldn’t put down.’ – Sophy Ridge
‘A shocking and thoroughly engaging work more terrifying than any horror story. An I’ll Be Gone In The Dark for the north west of England.’ – Janice Hallett, author of The Appeal and The Twyford Code
‘The Hunt for the Silver Killer is a gripping and haunting account, all the more so because of its unanswered questions. A serial killer at large is one thing - but a serial killer clever enough never to have been caught is another order of scary.’ – Christopher Hart * Sunday Times *
‘Astonishingly good, a true story that grips like the very best thriller - I defy anyone to put this down’ – Peter James
‘When the suburban dream becomes the suburban nightmare. Shocking and powerful in equal measure. Investigative journalism at its finest.’ – Nazir Afzal, author of The Prosecutor
‘This is a skilful telling of a gripping true story about the investigation and detection of murder. Readers will be captivated, as I was, by the determined quest of one remarkable woman - risking her reputation and career to try and prove the presence of a serial killer among us.’ – David James Smith, author of The Sleep of Reason
‘An extraordinary true crime story, written by a Sunday Times journalist, that reveals a string of deaths in the northwest and the as yet unidentified serial killer who may be responsible for them.’ * Sunday Times Summer Reading *
