The Forest

Twenty years ago, a series of gruesome murders terrified the nation.

The victims were young men, abducted and then found dead in the New Forest.

Ezra Crowley was caught and convicted. The killings stopped.

But now, another body has been found in the woods. And the scene is disturbingly familiar.

DCI Mackenzie Jones is brought in to lead the investigation, but the first breakthrough comes from an unexpected source. Crowley has asked to speak. But not to her . . . he wants Atticus Priest, the brilliant, abrasive former detective who has become notorious after a series of spectacular successes.

As Atticus returns to the shadows of the past, he begins to suspect the truth was buried deeper than anyone realized.
