About the book

He's paid to kill. Not paid to think.

Nic Caruana never wanted to be a killer. But life took a few wrong turns, and now he works as a hitman for a violent arms dealer. His boss's teenage daughter has been kidnapped, and it's Nic's job to find her using any weapon he needs to get to the truth.

Nic's hunt for the girl will take him to the darkest corners of London's criminal underworld. And it will draw him close to the girl's mother, Clare: a beautiful but dangerous woman who is prepared to do anything to get her child back.

Taut, spare, and brilliantly plotted, this gripping thriller asks of its characters: is evil something you do? Or something you are?

About the Author

Hanna Jameson

Hanna Jameson's fourth novel, part murder mystery and part post-apocalyptic thriller - THE LAST - is out now with Viking in the UK and Simon & Schuster-Atria Books in the US. The Last is the story of an American academic searching for the truth about a girl who has been murdered in his Swiss hotel in the aftermath of a nuclear war that has destroyed most of the Western world.

Jameson had written the first draft of her debut, award-nominated novel - SOMETHING YOU ARE - at just seventeen. Something You Are and two further novels in the series - GIRL SEVEN and ROAD KILL - are available now in the UK, Germany, Japan, and the Netherlands.

She lives in London currently, working on screenwriting projects. She likes whiskey, history, and emotionally taxing TV shows.
