Publisher's Synopsis
Back in 1988, a young Jeffery Deaver emerged onto the crime scene with a fresh and inspiring New York crime series starring a young film-maker - Rune. Sassy, clever but with all the noirish twists and turns of the classic Deaver, the series quickly established their author as one to watch. Now, Jeff has completely re-worked these novels - making them darker, grittier and more claustraphobic - and Hodder's can now present them to his fans.
In this opener, Rune becomes obsessed with the murder of one of the customers at her video store who has been renting the same classic noir movie over and over again. She is convinced that the secret to his brutal death is hidden in its black-and-white frames. But what she doesn't realise is that her interest is going to bring her far close to the killer than she ever could have wanted.
