Multiple strands converge with a horrific confrontation in which hunter and hunted are intimately connected by guilt.
'Buy it and be scared' -- The Times 'A genuine, gripping page-turner which shreds the nerves and is certain to be one of the thrillers of 1999' -- Mike Ripley, Crime Critic of the Daily Telegraph 'An ambitious, moral, disturbing tale with a stunning climax.' -- Marcel Berlins, The Times 'Fantastic - he has raised the standard of modern crime writing' -- J Wallis Martin 'Painstaking research, superb characterisation, and an ability to tell a story that's chilling and thought provoking make this a terrific thriller' -- Mirror 'A stunning debut ... EVERY DEAD THING ensnares us in its very first pages and speeds us through a harrowing plot to a riveting climax. I'm already impatient for Bird's next appearance.' -- Jeffery Deaver
