From the bestselling author of Devil’s Kitchen and Redbelly Crossing.
A Penguin audio exclusive, narrated by a full cast.
Dr Dave Wickerson has spent his life commanding respect – renowned surgeon, 9/11 medical hero and now a soon-to-be published author. But when his short fuse explodes on a call centre clerk, Dave assumes it’s just another outburst his assistant will clean up.
He’s dead wrong.
The man on the other end of the line is no ordinary clerk. He’s an inmate inside New York’s notorious Attica Correctional Facility, and someone with nothing left to lose. From inside his prison cell, the caller launches a campaign of terror that shatters Dave’s world: his patients are threatened, his home is invaded and his glittering reputation is dragged into the mud.
Desperate, Dave turns to the one person he swore he’d never ask for help – his estranged daughter Constance. But as Constance peels back the layers of the story, she discovers unsettling truths: the so-called monster behind bars may not be the only one with blood on his hands.
Ring, ring . . .
