Sinopsis

The last time DCI Jamie Carver tried to bait a serial killer, it ended badly - very badly. .Now they want him to do it again.

Eighteen months ago, Jamie Carver's capture of the serial killer, Lucas Hart, was hailed as, 'A triumph of good old-fashioned detective work'. But the hype was misplaced. In truth, the investigation was botched. Miscalculations cost lives; misjudgements ruined others.

Still racked with guilt, Carver knows his, 'exceptional detective', reputation is built on sand. Now, as he hunts the man the media have dubbed, ‘The Worshipper Killer’, the weight of expectation, from both colleagues and the public, hangs heavy.

Tagged, it seems, as a 'possible next victim', Megan Crane is a woman of singular qualities; darkly mysterious, enigmatic, fiercely independent, beautiful. Carver believes her unique insights may help him identify the killer - provided he doesn’t make the same mistakes as last time.

But the past has a habit of catching up with the present. And when it does, Carver knows he will be forced to confront that which he fears most - his own failings.

LAST GASP is the acclaimed, debut novel and first in a new series from thirty-year served, British Police Detective, Robert F Barker, an exciting new voice in the world of crime fiction, Perfect for fans of the likes of JD Kirk, Angela Marsons, Mark Billingham, Rachel McLean, Alex Smith and J M Dalgliesh.
