Claire McGowan est née en Irlande du Nord en 1981. Elle a grandi dans un village où l'événement le plus palpitant a sans doute été la cavalcade d'un troupeau de vaches le long de la route. Elle vit désormais à Londres où, après avoir exercé le métier de journaliste, elle a décidé de se consacrer à plein-temps à l'écriture. Ses romans policiers seront bientôt adaptés en série par BBC Drama. Elle a dirigé pendant deux ans la Crime Writer's Association et enseigne désormais l'écriture du roman noir dans une prestigieuse université londonienne. Elle se réjouit que ses romans soient désormais accessibles en français, une langue qu'elle parle couramment.

'Astonishing, powerful and immensely satisfying' - Peter James
Victim: Male. Mid-thirties. 5'7".
Cause of death: Hanging. Initial impression - murder.
ID: Mickey Doyle. Suspected terrorist and member of the Mayday Five.
The officers at the crime scene know exactly who the victim is. Doyle was one of five suspected bombers who caused the deaths of sixteen people.
The remaining four are also missing and when a second body is found, decapitated, it's clear they are being killed by the same methods their victims suffered.
Forensic psychologist Paula Maguire is assigned the case but she is up against the clock - both personally and professionally.
With moral boundaries blurred between victim and perpetrator, will Paula be able to find those responsible? After all, even killers deserve justice...
