How do you catch a killer who doesn't exist?
In the quiet cathedral town of Lafferton, a series of brutal murders terrorizes the elderly, living alone in a serene housing community. The killer's signature is chillingly familiar to DCS Simon Serrailler―it belongs to a suspect who walked free ten years ago.
Acquitted on a technicality, the man was given a new identity and disappeared without a trace. Now, Serrailler must hunt for a killer who officially ceased to exist, challenging the very notion of identity and justice.
A gripping psychological thriller for fans of Ruth Rendell and P.D. James.
In the seventh installment of Susan Hill's acclaimed British series, the hunt for a phantom killer forces the team to confront their limits:
Richly atmospheric and psychologically complex, A Question of Identity is a chilling reminder that some ghosts never truly disappear.
