Description

From the bestselling author of Mummy's Favourite comes an exciting new D.C. Charlie Stafford thriller. She chose the wrong man. And now she will pay. He keeps each one of his trophies floating in formaldehyde. Admiring his handy work. Those who deserved to be punished. Each finger denotes a victim, tortured and butchered, their heart ripped out and discarded, replaced instead by symbols of their treachery. D.C. Charlie Stafford is already investigating a series of escalating racist attacks and it now seems she has a vicious serial killer on her patch too. With no leads and time running out, the team at Lambeth are at near breaking point. Who will be the next trophy? And why must these women be slaughtered? What readers are saying about THE Trophy Taker: 'I read a lot of crime stories, and this is one of the best... The writing is so good that it disappears from view' 'Great book, skilfully crafted' 'Kept me riveted to the spot' 'Absolutely brilliant! Gripping and completely engrossing - could not put it down!'

Reviews

Comparable to Robert Bryndza's series and I can definitely recommend adding The Trophy Taker to your reading list * The Belgian Reviewer * The second book in the DC Charlie Stafford series. The first, the brilliant Mummy's Favourite, was published last year and, in my opinion, this one is even better! Sarah Flint has done a good job in keeping you guessing right to the end * Go Buy The Book * Clever, fast pacing and keeps you guessing until the end. I cannot wait to see what is waiting for Charlie next. I really enjoyed both of the books and just wish someone would pick it up for TV adaptations. It would make a brilliant crime drama for those long winter nights * No Empty Shelves Here * Everyone is keeping some kind of secret, but is any of it worth murdering to keep quiet about it? Will Charlie end up on a slab before she can figure out who is behind these killings? It will keep you guessing! * Books, Books and More Books! * Sarah Flint has written one detailed and surprising mystery. Between her surprising cast of characters, well thought out plot and descriptive scenes she's able to set a story you won't figure out 'til the end * Artistic Bent *
