Description
THE STANDALONE THRILLER FROM THE MILLION-COPY BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF RAGDOLL - SOON TO BE A MAJOR TV SERIES 'Clever, original and gripping' Rachel Abbott ********** 1989 DS Benjamin Chambers and DC Adam Winter are on the trail of a twisted serial killer with a passion for recreating the world's greatest works of art through the bodies of his victims. But after Chambers almost loses his life, the case goes cold - their killer lying dormant, his collection unfinished. 1996 Jordan Marshall has excelled within the Metropolitan Police Service, fuelled by a loss that defined her teenage years. Obsessed, she manages to obtain new evidence, convincing both Chambers and Winter to revisit the case. However, their resurrected investigation brings about a fresh reign of terror, the team treading a fine line between police officers and vigilantes in their pursuit of a monster far more dangerous and intelligent than any of them had anticipated... ********** Praise for Daniel Cole: 'A brilliant, breathless thriller' M.J. Arlidge 'Superb thriller writing' Peter Robinson 'A star is born. Killer plot. Killer pace' Simon Toyne
Author Biography
Daniel Cole (@DanielColeBooks) is the Sunday Times bestselling author of the Ragdoll trilogy, which has now been published in over thirty countries and is currently being adapted for TV. He has worked as a paramedic, an animal protection officer and with the RNLI lifeguards, but for the past five years has been describing himself on paperwork as a 'full-time writer'. Mimic is his fourth novel. He lives on the south coast of England and divides his time between the beach and the forest.
ReviewsClever, original and gripping. Once again, Daniel Cole has excelled himself with some of the most original murders I have ever encountered! Throw in a clever use of black humour, and Mimic will both enthral and entertain any lover of dark thrillers * Rachel Abbott * Engaging characters and an inventively twisted killer. Races to a breathless conclusion * Simon Beckett * The constant churn of serial killer novels can sometimes make you feel they are a sub-genre written largely by rote. Every so often though a writer comes along to remind you that they can force us to look at dark things we'd rather ignore. Daniel Cole is just such a writer; long may he go on making our flesh crawl. * ShotsMag *
