Isaac McFadden is on his way to dispose of a dismembered body when a routine traffic stop catches him. He is uncooperative and is quickly convicted of the killing. Then, McFadden's notebook is found, containing a code indicating he may have killed multiple times. Unable to crack the code, the police turn to Olivia to try to get McFadden to open up about the killings and to help in solving the code. Olivia's noted professional reputation and her personal history have drawn unwanted attention and distracted her from her investigation. This, combined with a manipulative McFadden, makes Olivia's task all the more difficult.
I am a fan of Wood's DCI Matilda Darke series, and this series is proving equally enjoyable. As with all of his books, this is a dark and chilling read. It is also suspenseful with good twists and excellent characters. I highly recommend this book and author.
4/5 stars.
