Twelve years ago, Noah Palmer went for a bike ride and never came home. His body is found in the Box Hill woods, a five-pointed star carved in his chest. He is the fourth victim of a serial killer who has never been caught.
Now, a young woman is involved in a shooting outside Harrods in central London. Her DNA shows a familial match to the Box Hill cold case.
Detective Rob Miller leads the investigation. But there’s not much to go on. Just when he thinks he’s got a lead, the case is turned on its head.
To solve this mystery, Rob’s going to have to go off-book, potentially putting his career — and already complicated love life — on the line.
Can he stop the Box Hill killer?

This gripping page-turner is perfect for fans of Helen H. Durrant, James Oswald, Joy Ellis, Angela Marsons, L.J. Ross, Alex Smith and J.M. Dalgliesh.
MEET THE DETECTIVE
DI ROB MILLER
Detective Inspector Rob Miller of the Met is finally given his first case as Senior Investigating Officer. For an ambitious, young detective, this is a dream come true. He’s gunning for promotion, and will do anything for his job, but can he also keep his personal life in check?
THE SETTING
The Murder Investigation Team is based out of leafy Putney, with its overgrown often-flooded riverbanks. One way the river leads into central London, the other out into the countryside. It’s an idyllic setting that masks a criminal underworld.

#GuestReview: Lena
THE BOX HILL KILLER opens in the aftermath of a heinous act which then becomes even more grisly. 12 years later new information comes about that sheds light on the cold case. An exploration of old files reveals connections that turn the investigation upside down. Interoffice politics throws up walls to solving the mystery. A gruesome discovery further complicates the situation. Tension mounts while efforts are made to skirt the barriers to identify suspects. Suspense skyrockets with a race against time as witnesses life may be in danger. Consequently, facts arise that once again creates upheaval to a dynamite finish.
