Written in Blood

Angela Wood only wanted to teach a man a lesson. She took his bag, a bag like any other, and inside found a journal whose pages are not meant for anyone else's eyes. Its owner has lost his most valuable possession, and he will do anything to get it back. When the journal reaches Robert Hunter's desk at the LAPD, the detective soon understands he is reading the private record of a serial killer, and that Angela is next.

The eleventh Robert Hunter novel, and a Sunday Times number one bestseller, it moves at a ruthless pace between three points of view: the killer, the girl and the detective racing to reach her first. Carter draws his murderer in unsettling detail. This one is for readers with strong nerves who like their crime dark, fast and properly frightening.
