Perfect for you if...

You love crime procedurals with dual leads (detective and psychologist) who bring different expertise to the same case.
You appreciate thrillers grounded in real police work, written by someone who actually knows how investigations unfold.
You want a locked-setting mystery that keeps piling on complications rather than revealing everything halfway through.

Maybe not for you if...

You prefer standalone cases that wrap up neatly rather than serial killer narratives that spiral into more questions.
You're looking for psychological depth over plot momentum; this prioritises twists and pacing.
You avoid crime fiction that draws on historical real-world killers as inspiration for fictional murders.

About this book

A body is discovered on a canal towpath in the Yorkshire town of Shipley. DCI Callum Ferguson calls on forensic psychologist Jo McCready to help investigate. When a second body is found on the canal within weeks, Jo believes a single killer is responsible. The case takes a disturbing turn when one of Jo's troubled patients is found brutally murdered. A puzzling connection emerges: the murderer may be taking inspiration from Jack the Ripper, one of Britain's most notorious serial killers. As DCI Ferguson and Jo McCready race to find the killer, the investigation becomes increasingly complex. With more questions than answers, they must work to solve the case before another victim is claimed.
