A Place of Blood and Bone

Mark Peterson

A second stunning Brighton-set crime novel featuring DS Minter from one of the sharpest new voices in British crime writing.

On the surface John Slade appeared quite normal. But when Martin a young biochemist ran a behavioural experiment he discovered a boy without inhibitions or moral qualms: the perfect subject for a series of experiments Martin had never dared try...

Twenty years later Brighton is facing a serial killer. DS Minter investigates the most bizarre and disturbing murder of his career; the dismembered body of a local woman dumped on a station platform. And when another body is found Minter realises he is hunting a brutal killer with an IQ off the scale the likes of which the city has never seen.
