It was eight years ago that they found the body buried on the moor. They were certain that this was one of psychotic rapist and multiple murderer Jerome Monk's teenage victims. Which left just two more bodies to find. But the search revealed nothing and ended badly. And with Monk safely behind bars, the momentum faltered. Resources were required elsewhere. For forensics expert David Hunter, and those others who were part of the recovery team, life moved on. And the dead left undisturbed. But now Hunter's heard some alarming news. A nightmare scenario unfurls. Monk has escaped and is targeting anyone involved in that ill-fated operation. Lured back to the moors by a desperate call for help, Hunter begins to realise that neither the events unfolding now -- nor those of eight years ago -- are quite what they seem.And as the maniac's violent trail edges ever closer, the past is suddenly anything but dead and buried... Intelligent, authentic and menacingly excitingly, The Calling of the Grave is the heart-in-mouth new crime thriller from this No.1 international bestseller.
