A London PI hunts for a missing person—and a vicious killer running loose on an island off the coast of Devon… Chris Sigurdsson has left the police force to start his own detective agency in London. He and his assistant, Priya, have built a strong reputation, and their casebook for the coming months is full. But Sigurdsson’s mind drifts back to his time as a Detective Inspector, and to the surreal week he spent investigating a case on Salvation Island. When the estranged wife of David Lithgow, a writer who’d been working on the island, approaches him to help locate her missing spouse, he cannot resist the allure of that sinister, mist-shrouded place. The case leads him back to Salvation Island and into a treacherous labyrinth of deceit. Is there a link between the mysterious proprietor of a traveling freak show and the malevolent specter of a vicious serial murderer who butchered six young women on the island? Has the killer continued his murderous spree from beyond the grave, or is there a copycat on the loose? To solve this case, Sigurdsson will need to enter the mind of a sadistic killer and unravel the island’s darkest secrets. And if he wants to survive, he must confront his deepest fears.
