A young man wakes from a coma to find himself targeted by the men who killed his parents, while someone is impersonating a notorious New Zealand serial killer … the latest chilling, nerve-shredding, twisty thriller from the author of The Quiet People…   "Paul Cleave is an automatic must-read for me" - Lee Child   __________     How do you catch a killer… When the only evidence is a dream?   James Garrett was critically injured when he was shot following his parents' execution, and no one expected him to waken from a deep, traumatic coma. When he does, nine years later, Detective Inspector Rebecca Kent is tasked with closing the case that her now retired colleague, Theodore Tate, failed to solve all those years ago.   But between that, and hunting for Copy Joe – a murderer on a spree, who's imitating Christchurch's most notorious serial killer – she's going to need Tate's help. Especially when they learn that James has lived out another life in his nine-year coma, and there are things he couldn' t possibly know, including the fact that Copy Joe isn' t the only serial killer in town…
