An effigy in the woods. A message written in fear.
Simon Serrailler is awoken into a hazy dawn by the insistent ringing of his phone. He’s being called out: there’s a body strung up in tranquil Harnham Woods. But on closer inspection it’s an effigy – a carefully made dummy, stirring in the breeze. This is no practical joke, it’s a message. And the next death is only a matter of time.
Hill’s elegant prose conceals a blade of menace. Revenge is a compact masterclass in tension: haunted soldiers, buried guilt and the detective who must see through the lies before the next life is lost.
