The Fairy Tale Murders

An obsessed killer plays games with the living and the dead. One rainy night in Seattle, the body of a young woman is found outside a dance studio. Cause of death, a single gunshot wound to the head. The victim is recognised by her former teacher as a student who disappeared four years ago. The FBI's advanced AI system, Themis, alerts Special Agent Ilona Farris, who quickly links the case to similar deaths in Washington State. All the unfortunate souls were holding a page torn from the fairy tales of the Brothers Grimm. But the mutilated bodies tell a story far darker than those found in folklore. What happens to the victims before they are found, years later? And can the choice of fairy tale in each killing hold the key to discovering the motive of the murderer? THE FAIRY TALE MURDERS is the fifth standalone thriller in a gripping series about a special FBI unit focused on seemingly unsolvable crimes. The full list is as follows: 1. THE PIPER'S CHILDREN 2. THE WHISTLER'S OMEN 3. THE STORM KILLINGS 4. THE DEVIL'S ARTIST 5. THE FAIRY TALE MURDERS
