The Retribution

Tony Hill and detective Carol Jordan have worked together for years, and their record of convictions is the kind other officers envy. One killer stands above the rest of those cases: Jacko Vance, a former celebrity and a sociopath who is both brilliant and without remorse.

Vance has been in prison for ten years. Tony has never been able to put him out of his mind. Now Vance has escaped, and he is more twisted and more cunning than he was when he was caught.

His aim is revenge. He blames Tony and Carol for the years he has spent behind bars, and he intends to make them pay. Neither of them knows when he will move or where, only that the fear he has planned for them will be worse than anything they have faced.

This is a crime thriller built around a long-running feud between two investigators and the serial killer they put away. The threat hangs over them from the start, so the tension comes from waiting for the next blow. The novel features Tony Hill and Carol Jordan, and it is written to be picked up by readers new to the pair as well as those who already know them.
