INTRODUCING FRANK
Born in Glasgow,
Frank was plagued from a young age
with the urge to see more of the
world than the rain sodden slopes of
the Campsie Fells. By the time he
graduated from University with a
degree he hated, he’d already had
more jobs than the River Clyde has
bends. Short stints as a lumberjack
in the Scottish Highlands and a
moulder’s labourer in the local
foundry convinced Frank that his
degree was not such a bad idea after
all. Twenty-five years of working
overseas helped him appreciate the
raw beauty of his home country. Now
a dual US/UK citizen, Frank visits
Scotland from time to time to sample
its beers and visit St. Andrews, and
write crime stories suffused with
dark alleyways and cobbled streets
and some things gruesome. Frank is
currently in the States working on
his next novel. |

One
psychopath. One killer. The
Stabber.
Six
victims. Six wife-abusers.
Each stabbed to death
through their left eye.
The
cobbled lanes and back
streets of St Andrews
provide the setting for
these brutal killings. But
six unsolved murders and
mounting censure from the
media force Detective
Inspector Andy Gilchrist off
the case. Driven by his fear
of failure, desperate to
redeem his career and
reputation, Gilchrist vows
to catch The Stabber alone.

What is
the significance of the left
eye? How does an old
photograph of an injured cat
link the past to the
present? And what exactly is
our little group?
Digging deeper into the
world of a psychopath,
Gilchrist fears he is up
against the worst kind of
murderer. A serial killer on
the verge of mental
collapse.
But
someone else has plans for
Gilchrist, a deranged
stalker seeking revenge for
an earlier failed
investigation. When
Gilchrist is confronted by
this lunatic, he is almost
killed. Battered and bruised
and scorned by his
associates, Gilchrist drives
on, hampered by growing
doubts.
Can he
alone unravel the warped
mind of a crazed killer? Can
he alone work out where the
next victim is to be slain?
With reckless resolve,
Gilchrist risks it all in a
heartstopping race to catch
The Stabber, knowing that
any mistake could be his
last.
