Written in Blood

A stolen bag, a private journal and a killer who will stop at nothing.
Reading guide
The publisher identifies this as the eleventh Robert Hunter novel, but the blurb introduces the detective and the premise clearly, so it can be picked up and read on its own terms.
A journal ends up on Robert Hunter's desk, and he soon realises it belongs to a serial killer. The story alternates between the killer searching for his lost possession, Angela Wood's terrifying discovery, and Hunter racing to stop the killer before Angela becomes his next victim.

Description

Angela Wood only wanted to teach a man a lesson. She took his bag, an ordinary-looking bag, and found inside a journal whose pages were never meant for other eyes. Its owner has lost his most valuable possession and will do anything to get it back. When the journal reaches LAPD detective Robert Hunter, he realises he is reading the private record of a serial killer, and that Angela is next.

This is the eleventh Robert Hunter novel and a Sunday Times number one bestseller. It moves at a ruthless pace through three points of view: the killer, the girl and the detective racing to reach her first. Chris Carter draws his murderer in unsettling detail, and the publisher's blurb praises the storytelling for underlining how good he has become. It suits readers with strong nerves who like their crime dark, fast and properly frightening.
