Book Synopsis

THE GRIPPING NEW THRILLER FROM BESTSELLING AUTHOR NICCI FRENCH

''Stunning - I loved it'' Clare Mackintosh, bestselling author of I Let You Go
____________

At long last, a final reckoning is coming for Frieda Klein...

On a north London high street, a runaway vehicle crashes to a halt, but the man in the driving seat was murdered a week earlier.

On Hampstead Heath, a bonfire blazes: in the flames lies the next victim.

As autumn leaves fall, a serial killer runs amok in the capital, playing games with the police. The death toll is rising fast, and the investigation is floundering.

But this is no ordinary killer, and every new victim is intended as a message to just one woman - psychologist Freida Klein.

And the message is very simple.

You''re next. . .

Frieda Klein''s duel with her dark nemesis is finally coming to a climax - and only one can make it out alive.

The stunning climax of Frieda Klein's battle with her nemesis. And what a climax! Loved it -- Clare Mackintosh
A multi-layered plot that keeps you guessing until the final page. -- Jane Corry, bestselling author of Blood Sisters
I love the Frieda Klein novels and this as good as they get. As thoughtful as it is gripping - masterful -- Sabine Durrant, bestselling author of Lie With Me
The best crime novels combine great writing, compelling storylines, and memorable characters. You get all of that in a Nicci French, but you also get something more: a deep insight into what it means to be human, and how to live with pain and loss -- Cara Hunter, Richard and Judy bestselling author of Close to Home
I loved Day of the Dead. Tension-filled, addictive and taut, with beautifully-drawn characters I won't forget. Nicci French just gets better and better -- Laura Marshall, bestselling author of Friend Request
Nicci French lays out the characters with the effortless skill of a croupier dealing cards, and like a card trick, Day of the Dead builds to an ending that is as inevitable as it is unforeseeable. A masterclass in how to end a series. -- Jane Casey
