FIRST HE TAKES YOU. THEN HE BREAKS YOU. The 13th adrenaline-packed Robert Hunter thriller and Top Ten Sunday Times bestseller . . .  'Gruesome but utterly riveting - and all the more so for being at least partly true' Daily Mail 'Dark, chilling and full of clever little plot kinks designed to send the reader off on a wild goose chase - and succeeding' Crime Fiction Lover 'Prepare to be terrified' Crime Monthly  It should have been a routine autopsy on a straightforward hit-and-run. It should have been an open and shut case. It shouldn't have led them to a serial killer - or put one of their own in danger.    When the LA Chief Medical Examiner, Dr Carolyn Hove, discovers some inconsistencies in a routine autopsy, she calls in Detective Robert Hunter of the LAPD Ultra Violent Crimes Unit. Not only was the victim not killed in a hit-and-run, but Dr Hove also found signs that they'd been severely tortured prior to death.  Their investigation leads Hunter and his partner, Carlos Garcia, on the trail of a twisted and clever killer who hides in plain sight. A serial killer no one even knew existed - a killer who has always operated under the radar, expertly disguising every gruesome murder as an accidental death.  But how do you investigate a murder when you have no victims? How do you catch a killer who leaves behind no crime scene? How do you stop a ghost who no one can prove even exists?  Readers can't get enough of The Death Watcher . . . (5 star reviews) 'Take a deep breath, gird your loins and dive in!' 'Brilliantly written and will keep you guessing....READ IT !!' 'Brilliant. Couldn't stop reading it - except when my eyes were telling me I had to!' 'A fab read, as always!' 'There is no other writer like Chris Carter!
