Eye For An Eye
Our most notorious criminals have hidden in plain sight. until now… ’emily’ is a devoted single mother. ‘jack’ starts a new job in a new town. they both share the same secret: neither of them are who they say they are. they are among only nine criminals in the uk who have been granted lifelong anonymity, for their own safety, because of their terrible crimes. but what if someone exposed their true identities to the families of their victims, who are desperate for revenge? probation officer olivia campbell is caught in the crossfire of this crisis – and as the search for the mole behind it all intensifies, so too does the hunt for the vigilante killers let loose by the leaks… right or wrong? criminal or victim? redemption or revenge? ***** praise for an eye for an eye: ‘a big, bold, twisting thriller’ chris whitaker ‘a thought-provoking masterclass’ daniel cole ‘a propulsive thriller … fast-moving, disturbing and thought-provoking’ guardian, thrillers of the month ‘a stirring crime novel for the 21st century’ daily mail ‘there are no easy answers in this thoughtful, harrowing thriller’ the sun ‘impressive and compassionate, eye for an eye should win prizes’ literary review #eyeforaneye
