"Shortlisted for the CWA John Creasey Award"--Contianer.

"In his debut novel, Stav Sherez -- author of the best-selling Carrigan & Miller detective series -- explores a history of terror and mass murder rooted in Europe's murky past. In a forgotten corner of a rain-lashed park in Amsterdam, the body of a tramp is found. The scarring on his body suggests he may be the latest victim of a serial killer terrorizing the city, but the police can find no name, only the telephone number of a young Englishman. Jon Reed is summoned from London to identify the body of the man he once knew as Jake Colby. With a killer on the loose, he and the detective in charge of the case are determined to help uncover the truth of what happened, no matter where that may lead them."--Publisher.

Suspense fiction.
