The Retribution

Autor Val McDermid
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 aug 2012
Clinical psychologist Tony Hill has had a good run. He and police detective Carol Jordan have put away scores of dangerous criminals at a rate that colleagues envy. But there is one serial killer who has shaped and defined their careers, and whose evil surpasses all others: Jacko Vance, ex-celebrity and sociopath, whose brilliance and utter lack of remorse have never left Tony's mind in the ten years since they put him behind bars. With a twisted and cunning mind honed by long years of planning, Jacko has now pulled off the perfect escape and is determined to wreak revenge on Tony and Carol for the years he has spent in prison. They don't know when Jacko will strike, or where, or even who. All they know is that Jacko will cause them to feel fear like they've never known. A chilling, utterly gripping tour de force, "The Retribution" is an unforgettable read.
