'Fans of Martina Cole will love this' Katerina Diamond

A gripping new series from million-copy bestseller Mel Sherratt.

TICK...

In the city of Stoke, a teenage girl is murdered in the middle of the day, her lifeless body abandoned in a field behind her school.

TOCK...

Two days later, a young mother is abducted. She's discovered strangled and dumped in a local park.

TIME'S UP...

DS Grace Allendale and her team are brought in to investigate, but with a bold killer, no leads and nothing to connect the victims, the case seems hopeless. It's only when a third woman is targeted that a sinister pattern emerges. A dangerous mind is behind these attacks, and Grace realises that the clock is ticking...

Can they catch the killer before another young woman dies?

The number one bestselling author returns with a breath-taking police procedural thriller series that will have you on the edge of your seat.
