When a ritual serial killer selects the notorious Sixfields housing estate in which to exhibit his work a whole community threatens to tear itself apart. Detective-Inspector Frank Crosby puts his own life in danger and jeopardises a thirty-five year career as he allows personal feelings to influence his pursuit of the killer. A resident of the Sixfields estate for more than ten years Robert Milner's sanity is ebbing slowly away. His only visitors are the shadows who emerge late at night to mock and taunt him. When Milner becomes a prime suspect in the ongoing murder investigation even he is unsure about his involvement. Against a background of gang warfare, drugs, and street riots DCI Oliver Rees-Bramley and his team come under increasing pressure as the deranged killer is driven to even further excesses. In a final unexpected twist, high in the Welsh mountains, a remote hill farm provides the backdrop for a violent and bloody conclusion to the ill fated investigation.
The author was born seven miles from Swindon in the Oxfordshire village of Ashbury. The early part of his life was spent in nearby Watchfield from where he attended Shrivenham Primary School and Faringdon Secondary Modern. Initially employed in administration at RMCS Shrivenham he transferred to an IT post in Bicester before moving to MOD (Navy) Bath as a systems analyst in 1993 where he is currently employed in the same capacity by Boeing UK. Married to Lynn (nee Wilson), the couple lived in Swindon for seventeen years before moving to Brackley in Northamptonshire. Their current home is Melksham in Wiltshire. Alan and Lynn have two daughters Kim and Nikki and a grand-daughter Mistee. Alan's interests include writing, poker and chess. He also enjoys the musical theatre and period drama. In the dim and distant past he once completed a London Marathon but his sporting activities are now restricted to a squash court and the golf course. He still suffers an occasional match at the County Ground where Swindon Town FC were followed on a regular basis for twenty-five years.
