The Photographer - Softcover

Nathan Riley lives alone and in crippling fear. Not just of strangers, or the outside, or loud noises, but of the man who sends him photographs of mutilated women -?of women, he's supposed to have killed. Nate tries to hide deep inside his child-like mind but there he is at his most vulnerable. The man manipulates him, controls him and feeds on his fears. He isn't going to stop until Nate is nothing but a lifeless empty shell. Will Nate's brother intervene? Or is it him that's really on the murderer's hit list? To clear his name Nate must stalk a stalker. But does he have it in him to kill a killer? Or will he perish under the man's psychopathic rage?? The man wants to punish him for what he has done. Crime meets horror in this vivid psychological thriller that keeps the reader guessing right to the final climax. Combining both genres, Vivienne Maudlin has done for them what Allan Furst did for the spy novel - attain a level of psychological realism that stands you at the characters' shoulders, and will reinvent what you thought you knew.

Vivienne Maudlin would write infinite stories in her exercise books until her primary teachers took them away. She has reined herself in somewhat but still loves to defy the 'writing rules'. She currently resides at sea level in Brighton trying (and failing) to quell her wanderlust.
