The Twenty (Hardcover)

A nail-biting new crime novel from the author of the award winning thrillerThe Echo Man! ‘Some authors spook you. Some authors unnerve me. Very few authors frighten you — but very few authors are Sam Holland. The Twenty is smart and brooding, icepick-sharp and shadow-dark; best of all, though, it’s scary as hell. Think you’re tough? Pick up this novel and prove it’ AJ Finn, author of The Woman in the Window ‘Bodies (lots of them), grisly crime-scenes pored over by complex characters with even more complex relationships. What's not to love? With The Twenty Sam Holland establishes herself as a very bright new star in the dark crime writing firmament’ Simon Toyne, author of Dark Objects ‘A chilling exploration of all the nooks and crannies of the disturbed human mind’ Amanda Cassidy, author of Breaking ‘So dark you almost have to look away yet so compelling you can't stop turning the next page’ Tim Glister, author of Red Corona The countdown has begun. Who will die next? A shocking crime scene… DCI Adam Bishop has never seen anything like it. Five murder victims – all with numbers written above. And the spray-painted daubs reveal a horrific truth: the killer is counting down… A case that twists and turns… When Dr Romilly Cole learns of the murders, they trigger memories of a traumatic past she has tried hard to forget. But getting involved with the case is a bad idea. She and Bishop have history – and working together could never end well. A race against time to stop a killer… Adam and Romilly soon realise the truth lies in a decades-old case, and only Romilly holds the key. But they must act quickly, because with every passing day, there are more victims. And as the numbers edge toward zero, the murders get closer to home… * THE ECHO MAN won the Bronze Bat for Best Debut Thriller at the Netherlands Thriller Festival on 30 October 2022.
