Robert Bryndza - Nine Elms réme - Kate Marshall 1.

Kate Marshall was a promising young detective when she uncovered the infamous Nine Elms serial killer. However, his greatest victory soon turned into a nightmare. Kate, humiliated, betrayed and dragged in public by the unusual circumstances of the case, watched helplessly as her career was ended by scandal.

Fifteen years after the catastrophic events, Kate is a lecturer at a small English university, but she is still haunted by her painful past. A mysterious figure has donned the mantle of the former Nine Elms cannibal to continue his idol's abandoned career.

Relying on her somewhat frayed but soon-to-be-revived detective instincts, Kate tracks down the monster with the help of her brilliant research assistant, Tristan Harper. Success promises reparation, but much more is at stake: Kate would have been the fifth victim of the original killer. And the successor was determined to finish the work he had begun...

The latest crime series from the author of the well-deservedly successful The Girl Under the Ice and The Night Hunter promises unstoppable thrillers full of twists and turns. Detective Kate Marshall is also an outstanding figure of the London police who, like Chief Inspector Erika Foster, solves unsolved cases with brilliant ingenuity
