Two migrant workers are dead, and a sinister message has been discovered at the scene: killing time is here, embrace it. How long does Eve have before the killers strike again? 'Fast-paced and chilling... Mark Roberts is what British crime fiction has been looking for' CRIME SQUAD. 'Dark, gripping and believable' GRAHAM MASTERTON.
