Birdman by Mo Hayder

'A first-class shocker . a frightening mix of forensics, thrills, analytical police work and poetic images.' Guardian Greenwich, south-east London. Detective Inspector Jack Caffery - young, driven, unshockable - is called to one of the most gruesome crime scenes he has ever seen.

Not for the faint-hearted.. what sets Birdman apart is Hayder's talent * Sunday Express *
A first-class shocker... a frightening mix of forensics, thrills, analytical police work and poetic images... a young writer in touch with her dark side and a major new talent * Guardian *
Wickedly constructed... Her cast of suspects is the most spooky since Dickens... The detail, if you can stomach it, is fascinating * Daily Telegraph *
Hayder's vibrant narrative and crunchy characterisation propel the book along to its denouement with fearsome velocity * The Times *
