The Wire in the Blood

Young girls are disappearing around the country, and there is nothing to connect them to one another, let alone the killer whose charming manner hides a warped and sick mind. Dr Tony Hill, head of the new National Profiling Task Force, sets his team an exercise where they are given the details of missing teenagers and asked to discover any possible links between the cases. Only one officer comes up with a theory — a theory that is ridiculed by the group, until one of their own is murdered and mutilated. For Tony Hill, the case becomes a matter for personal revenge, and joined by Carol Jordan, he embarks on a campaign of psychological terrorism where hunter and hunted can all too easily be reversed.
