Description

Things are never what they seem…

A young Belfast man brags about how he selected his most recent mark – he stalks, abducts, drugs and then kills her before hiding the body out at sea.

The perfect crime all spelt out in clinical detail.

At the same time, across the Irish Sea in Liverpool, Detective Inspector Tara Grogan of Merseyside Police is called out to a gruesome murder scene on Crosby Beach.

The castrated body of a man – an investigative journalist – has been found half-buried head first in the sand.

Did the victim, who earned a reputation for hounding drug-dealers, dodgy property developers and corrupt councillors, make enemies brutal enough to prompt a gang-style execution?

Could it be possible that these horrific events are somehow linked?

The parallel lives of a sex-crazed psychopath and a pretty, intelligent young police inspector go about their daily lives, unaware that they are destined to collide.

More pretty young girls – in London, Manchester and Liverpool – have mysteriously disappeared as their killer delights in telling.

And another frenzied murder on Merseyside envelops DI Grogan in an increasingly labyrinthine investigation when she discovers that the dead journalist’s sister could be one of the missing.

In a thrilling climax, DI Grogan’s instincts are put to the ultimate test after dating a persistent admirer she senses is not quite right.

Lethal Dose is a gripping and uncompromising crime thriller in which a series of unspeakable crimes unfold in parallel. McCracken ramps up the suspense as two paths close to a point where one must surely disappear…

Robert McCracken has a PhD in Food Chemistry and has worked for thirty years in research and development relating to issues of global food safety.
