A relentless serial killer thriller loosely based on the real-life Smiley Face Killer--for fans of Harlan Coben crime thrillers and the blood-curdling fiction of Thomas Harris "Some authors spook you. Some authors unnerve me. Very few authors frighten you--but very few authors are Sam Holland." --AJ Finn, #1 New York Times-bestselling author of The Woman in the Window When DCI Adam Bishop arrives at the crime scene in the dead of night, the sight of the body is bad enough--but what Adam notices next chills him to his core. More bodies surface. And the spray-painted numbers daubed above the corpses reveal the horrific truth: the killer is counting down. But to what end? Adam has no idea--until Dr. Romilly Cole knocks on his door with damning evidence pointing to a series of murders twenty five years earlier--a case she knows intimately from her past. Now, it's personal--and the next knock on his door could be fatal. Sam Holland's gripping debut novel, The Echo Man, riveted readers and critics alike with its raw and brutal depiction of the unthinkable depredations of a serial killer. With The Twenty, Holland kicks her depraved milieu into even higher gear with another up-all-night serial killer thriller that will leave readers breathless.

For fans of Harlan Coben and "Mindhunter," Sam Holland's chilling debut draws inspiration from infamous serial killer cases, culminating in the ultimate, heart-pounding copycat tale. Detectives Cara Elliott and Noah Deakin are on the case of a series of seemingly unconnected murders, each different in method, but each shocking and brutal. As the body count increases, they can't ignore the details that echo famous cases of the past--Manson, Kemper, Dahmer, and more. As Elliott and Deakin get closer to unmasking the killer, the murders are moving closer to home. Meanwhile, Jessica Ambrose is on the run. She's been implicated as the arsonist who killed her neglectful husband and injured her young daughter. With the help of disgraced and suspended detective Nate Griffin, Jess discovers a shocking link between her case and that of the ultimate copycat killer working on his horrifying masterpiece.

En våg av brutala mord sveper över England. Tillvägagångssätten är helt olika, men det finns en gemensam nämnare - de utförs på de mest ohyggliga och bestialiska sätt man någonsin kan tänka sig. Jess Ambrose vaknar en natt i panik av att det brinner i hela huset. I sista sekund lyckas hon rädda sig själv och sin dotter, men hennes man dör i lågorna. Polisen meddelar att de hittat tecken på att maken varit inlåst och bunden, vilket gör att de misstänker att det är hon som ligger bakom branden. Den enda hon kan lita på nu är Nate Griffin, en polis som är ute i kylan inom kåren men som är seriemördaren på spåren. Han är den enda som tror henne när hon hävdar sin oskuld. Det dröjer inte länge förrän Jess och Griffin inser att mördaren, som fått öknamnet Imitatören, in i minsta detalj härmar världshistoriens mest ökända seriemördare och deras modus operandi. Vad de inte vet är att han nu gör sig redo för att överträffa dem alla...SAM HOLLAND studerade psykologi på universitetet och jobbade med HR innan hon sadlade om till författare. Hon har alltid varit fascinerad av människans makabra mörker och är särskilt intresserad av seriemördare. "en strålande debut" A.J. Finn

Kriminalkommissarie Adam Bishop har just tagit helg när en av hans närmaste män, kriminalinspektör Jamie Hoxton, dyker upp och meddelar att de måste i väg. De har blivit beordrade att omedelbart bege sig till en brottsplats och trots att både Bishop och Hoxton är rutinerade poliser har de aldrig sett något som ens liknar det de en stund senare möts av. En efter en har mördaren tagit livet av fem personer och tydligt markerat i vilken ordning det skett genom att lämna en siffra ovanför varje kropp. När dr Romilly Cole får höra talas om morden väcker de obehagliga minnen till liv och hon inser att hon måste kontakta polisen. Det är bara det att kommissarie Bishop, som är ansvarig utredare, även är hennes exman. Samarbetet blir en rejäl utmaning för dem båda, men de har inget val. Romillys trasiga bakgrund gör nämligen att hon är den enda som kan närma sig svaret på vem mördaren är. De fem offren visar sig bara vara början. Frågan är vem som står näst på tur.SAM HOLLAND studerade psykologi på universitetet och jobbade med HR innan hon sadlade om till författare. Hon debuterade med The Echo Man (Imitatören, 2023).

Ta on jäljendanud maailma kõige võikamaid tapjaid. Nüüd on ta valmis neid kõiki ületama ... Sam Hollandi külmavärinaid tekitav debüütromaan ammutab inspiratsiooni kurikuulsate sarimõrvarite juhtumitest, tulemuseks on pulssi lakke viiv lugu jäljendajast. Uurijad Cara Elliott ja Noah Deakin uurivad mõrvade jada, mida pealtnäha ei seo miski: nende toimepanekuks on kasutatud erinevaid meetodeid, kuid kõik need on shokeerivad ja jõhkrad. Laipade arvu suurenedes ei saa nad mööda vaadata tõsiasjast, et kõik jäljendavad kuulsaid minevikujuhtumeid: Manson, Kemper, Dahmer ja teisedki. Tapja tabamisele lähemale jõudes jõuavad kodule lähemale ka mõrvad. Jesse Ambrose pageb samal ajal seadusesilma eest. Teda peetakse süütajaks, kes tappis oma hoolimatu abikaasa ja vigastas nende väikest tütart. Jess avastab häbisse sattunud ja töölt kõrvaldatud uurija Nate Griffini abiga vapustava seose enda juhtumi ja oma õudustäratava meistriteose kallal töötava jäljendajast sarimõrvari vahel. SAM HOLLAND on alati vaimustunud süngest ja tontlikust. Tema lugemisarmastus sai alguse raamatukogust, kus tema lemmikuteks olid Stephen King, Dean Koontz ja James Herbert. End sarimõrvarihullust nohikuks nimetav Holland õppis ülikoolis psühholoogiat, tegi seejärel mõned järgmised aastad personalitööd ja pühendus siis täielikult kirjutamisele. Selle tulemuseks on "Jäljendaja".
