Dead Blonde by Beck Robertson

Retail

A serial killer is stalking and killing young blonde women in London, leaving a mysterious necklace behind at the scene of the crime, and Chief Inspector Deacon Gaine has been assigned to the case. But in order to catch a killer, he will discover that sometimes you need to look deep into the past in order to unravel the secrets of the present.

Gaine has no leads, little evidence, and zero suspects. He must open an unsolved murder case from 17 years ago, in order to decipher the truth, and uncover a secret that has been buried deep. If he can reveal it in time, it will lead straight to the identity of the killer. A killer, who is hell bent on completing his macabre collection. But can Gaine uncover the truth before it's too late? And can he stop the killer in time?

Dead Blonde will take you deep behind the eyes of a killer, and into the mind of the detective who must stop him, asking the age old question, are monsters born or are they made?
