The Lanthorn Man
In the Forest of Dean, a lantern hangs above a front door. Inside it, a candle burns - and behind that door, someone is gone.
Clark Lamb is the kind of man everyone trusts without quite knowing why. A community support coordinator, warm and endlessly patient, he notices the people other people stop seeing: the grief-hollowed, the isolated, the ones quietly drowning in lives no one is watching closely enough to save. He has a way of fixing that. He calls it mercy.
DI Jessica Callaway knows he's responsible. What she doesn't have is proof - Clark never leaves a trace, and never once doubts that what he's doing is right. Worse, the one man close enough to expose him, a quiet debt counsellor named Joel, has already been drawn so far into Clark's orbit that he can no longer see what's standing in front of him.
As the bodies mount and the lanterns multiply, Jessica isn't just racing to catch a killer. She's racing to reach someone before it's too late for him to matter.
A psychological thriller about faith, devotion, and the price of being absolutely certain you're right
