A young woman is brutally attacked on her way home. It looks like she was the victim of a jilted—and twisted—ex-lover. But then two more women, also engaged to be married, are found dead. The press call the killer the "Surrey Stalker". And there’s a stack of similar cold case files. The pressure is on for young, ambitious DI Rob Miller. But with all the time he’s spending at the office, Rob’s also running a fine line trying to keep his fiancée, Yvette, onside as they try to plan their wedding.

Story
Meet Detective Inspector Andy Horton. It’s his second day back in Portsmouth’s CID and things aren’t going well. Eight months ago, Horton was suspended for misconduct. Then the young woman who accused him went missing and the charges were dropped, but his personal and professional lives are still a mess. On his morning run along an isolated stretch of beach, he stumbles across a dead man. Stark-naked and bludgeoned to death. And it doesn’t look good when a detective under suspicion of misconduct is the one to find a dead body. His colleagues don’t want him on the case.

NOT THE BEST IN THE SERIES FOR ME
Another well written and well plotted story which was narrated very well as usual.
I'm a big fan of this series, especially the earlier books but for me, this one fell short.
I'm not a big fan of gang related crime anyway nor do I enjoy crime fiction based around child trafficking and drugs so for me, the themes of this book were not great.
like I said though, the writing and narration were great so if you like more gritty themes, rather than the standard serial Killers Trope, you'll probably love this.
