About the Author:
SOMEONE IS WATCHING YOU...MURDER AND OBSESSION STALK THE STREETS OF THE SECOND CITY OF LONDON.
Annie Briggs, whose evidence as a child was responsible for convicting two killers, feels a vague sense of unease and fears she is being watched. She then discovers that the murderers have been released and are living nearby. Annie dreads the revenge she knows will come.
But another killer is already walking the streets, cunning inventive – almost a shape-changer. It looks as though the Second City of London is harbouring a serial killer – a killer the police think is called Charley.
Is Charley the one John Coffin, Chief Commander of London's Second City, must stop? And who is Charley...what is Charley?
‘Gwendoline Butler writes detective novels that both in method and atmosphere are things apart...she achieves that real whodunit pull’
