THE DEAL

Tom

Thorne is back in charge - but there's a terrifying price to pay.

Stuart Nicklin, the most dangerous psychopath he has ever put behind

bars, promises to reveal the whereabouts of a body he buried twenty-five

years before. But only if Thorne agrees to escort him.

THE DANGER

Unable

to refuse, Thorne gathers a team and travels to a remote Welsh island, at the mercy of the weather and cut off from the mainland. Thorne is determined to get the job done and return home before Nicklin can outwit them.

THE DEATHS

But Nicklin knows this island well and has had time to plan ahead. Soon, new bodies are added to the old, and Thorne finds himself facing the toughest decision he has ever had to

make...

Tom Thorne returns in this utterly gripping, brilliantly plotted thriller. The Bones Beneath is Mark Billingham's most ambitious and accomplished work to date.
