”A superbly strong read” The Times

What began as a straightforward case is about to become a twisted nightmare . . .

Once a busy hospital, St Jude”s now stands derelict, awaiting demolition.

When a partially mummified corpse is found in the building”s cavernous loft, forensics expert Dr David Hunter is called in to take a look. He can”t say how long the body”s been there, but he is certain it”s that of a young woman. And that she was pregnant.

Then part of the attic floor collapses, revealing another of the hospital”s secrets: a bricked-up chamber with beds inside. And some of them are still occupied.

And it soon becomes clear that St Jude”s hasn”t claimed its last victim . . .

Chilling, visceral and masterfully paced, Simon Beckett”s new crime thriller will leave you gasping.
