Free (nook/Kindle/Kobo/iTunes UK) Dead Man Walking [British Cop vs Killer Thriller]

ATDrake · 10-23-2015, 02:07 PM

Dead Man Walking by Lancashire-resident author Paul Finch (ISFDB, SYKM, Wikipedia), who incidentally also writes Doctor Who tie-in stuff and won a British Fantasy Award, is the 4th in his Heck series of serial-killer hunting police thrillers starring DS Mark Heckenberg of Scotland Yard's Serial Crimes Unit (apparently there's enough serial killers in the UK to justify having a dedicated specialty branch, which seems rather depressing), this installment pitting him against a resurfacing killer who has returned to stalk new victims in an isolated community, free courtesy of publisher HarperCollins UK's Avon imprint.

Currently free @ B&N UK, Amazon UK, iTunes UK, & Kobo (probably only available to the UK, since this looked rather unfree in the other regional stores that I spot-checked, though YMMV). Probably also Google Play UK as well.

Unlikely to cross the pond in any direction, as we've a pretty low transmigration rate for HC UK freebies to begin with, much less from this imprint. That said, it does look like the other books in the series are promotionally priced at $2.99-$3.99 in North America.

An additional standalone short crime story by the author from Avon is still free in multiple stores and regions: The Chase @ B&N (also UK), Amazon (not available to Canadians, but also free in the UK), Kobo & iTunes (neither available to Canadians), and probably also Google Play if you're in a compatible country.

Description
The fourth unputdownable book in the DS Mark Heckenburg series. A killer thriller for fans of Stuart MacBride and Luther, from the #1 ebook bestseller Paul Finch.

His worst nightmare is back…

As a brutal winter takes hold of the Lake District, a prolific serial killer stalks the fells. ‘The Stranger’ has returned and for DS Mark ‘Heck’ Heckenburg, the signs are all too familiar.

Last seen on Dartmoor ten years earlier, The Stranger murdered his victims in vicious, cold-blooded attacks – and when two young women go missing, Heck fears the worst.

As The Stranger lays siege to a remote community, Heck watches helplessly as the killer plays his cruel game, picking off his victims one by one. And with no way to get word out of the valley, Heck must play ball…

A spine-chilling thriller, from the #1 ebook bestseller. Perfect for fans of Stuart MacBride and James Oswald.
