Birthdays for the Dead: The gripping No. 1 Sunday Times bestselling crime suspense thriller that will have you on the edge of your seat!

Twelve years. Twelve dead girls. Thirteen will be unlucky for some. The Number One bestselling crime thriller from the award-winning Stuart MacBride. A bloody, brilliant and brutal story of murder, kidnap and revenge. Detective Constable Ash Henderson has a dark secret… Five years ago his daughter, Rebecca, went missing on the eve of her thirteenth birthday. A year later the first card arrived: home-made, with a Polaroid picture stuck to the front – Rebecca, strapped to a chair, gagged and terrified. Every year another card: each one worse than the last. The tabloids call him ‘The Birthday Boy’. He’s been snatching girls for twelve years, always just before their thirteenth birthday, killing them slowly, then torturing their families with his homemade cards. But Ash hasn’t told anyone what really happened to Rebecca – they all think she ran away – because if anyone finds out, he’ll be taken off the investigation. And he’s sacrificed too much to give up before his daughter’s murderer gets what he deserves… In this top Sunday Times bestselling book, the suspense and mystery of the police procedural genre are masterfully woven by the author. The hard-boiled noir elements add a chilling layer to the thrillers, making it a must-read for fiction enthusiasts. For fans of Jd Kirk (A Killer of Influence), Mark Billingham (The Wrong Hands), Andrew Raymond (The Shortlist), James Oswald (All That Lives), and J M Dalgliesh (The Talisker Dead).
