Summary
After the second murder, Thorne and his team begin to believe that the victims - all killed in impersonal hotel rooms - must share some common history. In fact, they are linked by one detail: all have served time for rape. But then a victim who's not a rapist turns up. What could they have missed?

Lazybones by Mark Billingham
Someone - a woman or somebody pretending to be a woman, is writing to convicted rapists in prison, befriending them and then brutally killing them when they are released. DI Tom Thorne must discover the link between these killings and a murder/suicide that took place twenty-five years before; a tragedy to which the only witnesses were two small children, now adults and nowhere to be found. How can you escape a past that will do a lot more than just catch up with you? And how can Thorne catch a killer, when he doesn't really care about the victims?
