What to expect

'The perfect book for Erika Foster fans. It has all the same vibes - but MORE. I actually think this is Robert Bryndza's best book yet'

'A gripping read that I could not put down'

'What an absolutely stunning start to what promises to be a brilliant new series'

__________

From the breakthrough international bestselling author of The Girl in the Ice, a breathtaking, page-turning novel about a disgraced female detective's fight for redemption. And survival.

Kate Marshall was a promising young police detective when she caught the notorious Nine Elms serial killer. But her greatest victory suddenly became a nightmare.

Fifteen years after those catastrophic, career-ending events, a copycat killer has taken up the Nine Elms mantle, continuing the ghastly work of his idol.

Enlisting her brilliant research assistant, Tristan Harper, Kate draws on her prodigious and long-neglected skills as an investigator to catch a new monster. But there's much more than her reputation on the line: Kate was the original killer's intended fifth victim . . . and his successor means to finish the job.

Critics Review

Bryndza is my type of author and Nine Elms is my type of book. Twisty, dark and layered with a protagonist you root for from page one, this is a superb start to what promises to be another stand out series
M. W. Craven, author of THE PUPPET SHOW
A narrative that is never less than throat-grabbing . . . Robert Bryndza knows how to keep the pages - and your stomach - turning

Electrifying
Crime Monthly
An incredibly dramatic, graphic and gripping start to a new series . . . I was glued to the pages, and read the whole book in one sitting . . . Bryndza really has set the scene for a fabulous new series. Fierce, startling and incredibly readable, Nine Elms comes as highly recommended
LoveReading
Clever stuff, and a great series opener
Daily Sport
Bryndza's characters are so vividly drawn - even the slightest character - and fully human and uniquely imperfect. His plots are clever and original and cool and his sense of timing is excruciatingly flawless. Nine Elms is Robert Bryndza spreading his already formidable wings to thrilling effect
Augusten Burroughs, author of RUNNING WITH SCISSORS
A heart-pounding series launch from Bryndza . . . Readers will look forward to seeing more of the complex Kate

Twisty, dark and oh so gory - this is the start of a very promising series
