From Little Stack

A serial killer is terrorizing the streets of London. With the Opening Ceremony of the London Olympic Games in seven days' time, DI Jack MacIntosh and his team at the Metropolitan Police have one week to find him. The killer’s motives are unknown, but there is a mysterious clue left at each crime scene. It’s a case that would soon take a menacing and personal twist.

This one is suspenseful, so very absorbing and full of twists and red herrings. My perfect kind of crime book!

Publisher Description

MEET DETECTIVE JACK MACINTOSH IN THIS BRILLIANT NEW CRIME SERIES.

A twisted killer.

A deadly game of cat-and-mouse.

Detective Jack MacIntosh has seven days to find the truth.

A young woman is discovered strangled in Hyde Park. Wearing only one shoe.

Close to the body, Detective Jack MacIntosh finds a black stiletto, diamante buckle glinting in the early morning sun. But it doesn't belong to the victim.

Two days later, another young woman is found strangled to death in nearby Green Park. Wearing just one shoe — the matching stiletto.

Hidden in the long grass beside the body, the police uncover a low-heeled court shoe.

Detective Jack and his team are in a race against time to find the owner of the court shoe before it's too late.

At the same time, Jack is fighting demons of his own. Demons which rise up from the past and threaten to cloud his judgement just when he needs it most.

Detective Jack is hunting a brutal killer. A killer who delights in playing twisted games. Who will win this deadly battle of wits?

THE DETECTIVE

Detective Inspector Jack MacIntosh is a dedicated police officer, the one person you would want to fight your corner. But he has been known to cross the line to get the job done.

As a four-year-old boy he discovered his mother's body swinging from a light fitting. Jack and his younger brother were taken into care — Jack did OK, his brother not so much.

A bit of a loner, Jack has never married — although plenty of women would like to give it a shot. He lives in a charming mews cottage in central London. No one is quite sure how he can afford it on a detective's salary.
