HARLAN COBEN

Cloaked in absence, the Travelling Man comes calling . . .

NYPD cop Charlie Parker returns home one evening to a brutal scene - his wife and daughter violently murdered, their faces removed and their bodies displayed in macabre poses: the work of the Travelling Man.

Numb from guilt and desperate for distraction, Parker becomes embroiled in the case of a missing woman. As the investigation spirals, Parker learns that this disappearance is merely the latest development in a tale of injustice and cruelty.

All the while, the Travelling Man haunts him . . .
