Cold Heart by Stephen Edger

It has been a week since anyone last saw fifteen-year-old Daisy, after she left her best friend's house and started her short walk home. Detective Kate Matthews and her team have been looking for her ever since.

When a tip-off leads Kate to a disused gymnasium at Daisy's school, she is shocked to find evidence linking to the murder of a different girl.

Working the two cases side by side, Kate's blood runs cold when a gift-wrapped box containing a human heart is delivered to her at the station. The heart belongs to yet another unknown victim, but the message is clear: there will be more, and Daisy could be one of them.

When activity on Daisy's Facebook account indicates she is still alive, the race is on for Kate and her team. Will Daisy be the killer's next victim? Is Kate prepared to risk everything to stop another innocent life from being taken?

This absolutely unputdownable crime thriller will have fans of Angela Marsons, Peter James and Rachel Abbott biting their nails long after the final twist has sunk in.
