Description

"The Boathouse was off-grid, a facility that nobody wanted to talk about."


Sean Archer is a self-taught criminologist and profiler who has been obsessed with crime since his parents were found dead when he was 14 years old. A computer savant who has developed digital profiling tools that the police have come to depend on, Sean has acquired a reputation for being able to solve crimes that no one else can but when his own girlfriend, Alex, is brutally murdered whilst researching an off-grid torture facility called The Boathouse, his brilliant inventions are of no use.


Alex has left little for Sean to decipher only a list of names. Then Peter Sinclair, a property billionaire, contacts Sean for help. Peter's wife, Becky, has been kidnapped and will be killed if he goes to the police or doesn't follow instructions. Sean agrees to help. Not because he wants the case, but because Peter Sinclair was on Alex's list. When Sean tracks Becky down, she leads him right where he wants to go or so he thinks…


"I have always loved reading and writing a book has been a lifetime ambition. I am a huge fan of crime thrillers and

for many years I created characters and plots as hobbies. I loved the whole process of writing this book and would

love to write many more. I think the authors job is to examine and question the world we live in and hopefully, make

other people do the same and eventually change aspects of society for the better. As readers we want to know what

it feels like to be victims, villains, heroes and anti-heroes. We enjoy the vicarious thrill of crime without putting

ourselves through hell and into danger", says R. J. Harries.
