Sinopse

The search for a Christmastime serial killer leads Det. Supt. Henry Christie into the crossfire of warring Lancashire crime families.   Lancashire’s Chief Constable lures Det. Superintendent Henry Christie away from his much-needed Christmas vacation with the possibility of catching a serial killer. Though he has a new fiancée to celebrate with and an ailing mother to care for, Henry can’t refuse the chance to bring a murderer to book.   In his thirty years with the Lancashire constabulary, Henry’s never dealt with a case like this. Multiple victims disappeared on Christmas Eve, only to turn up gruesomely murdered on New Year’s Day. But as he follows the leads to the likely next target—who happens to be the mentally deranged son of a Lancashire crime family—Henry finds himself stepping into a blood-soaked turf war.   “Oldham shows just how exciting a proper police investigation can be in this top-notch procedural.” —Publishers Weekly
