The Man at Three A.M. - A James Locker Thriller

Every night, Detective James Locker wakes at exactly 3.00 a.m. Never three-ish. Always 3.00. He's about to find out why. Nine months ago, James's fiancée emptied their savings and vanished with a single text: I never want to see you again. He survived it the way he survives everything: pills, work, and not asking questions. Now he's been handed the biggest case of his career. A crime lord's wife, executed in her Mosman mansion by a killer who slipped through a state-of-the-art security system like a ghost. Then the ghost strikes again. And again. Each victim is a stranger to James, so why does every crime scene feel like déjà vu? As the body count rises, the killer starts leaving messages. Not for the police. For James. Written in blood on his own bathroom mirror, signed with two initials he's never heard, yet somehow already knows. The evidence points to a legendary detective with a grudge and a drinking problem. James's instincts point somewhere far worse: to the fiancée who disappeared, the basement key he lost, and the stranger who looks back at him from every mirror. Some killers hide in shadows. This one hides somewhere much closer. A dark, twist-driven psychological thriller set in Sydney's underbelly, for readers who like their detectives broken, their villains intimate, and their endings unforgettable.
