As someone who has suffered abuse at the hands of men, Maddie protects women by murdering those who attack them â" men she calls âfleasâ. Fleas are men who follow women home. Abusive husbands who refuse to walk away. And then thereâs the Manchester Maniac: a serial killer stalking the streets, determined to murder people like her.
But Maddie canât get away with it forever. Years later, in the interview room of her prison, she comes face-to-face with a very important visitor. Someone sheâs going to tell all to, about how she caught one of the UKâs most prolific serial killers, and how she got caught as one herselfâ¦
This emotional and chilling thriller in the vein of Promising Young Woman is perfect for fans of Alice Feeney, Helen Fields and Jo Callaghan.
