Deadly Sleep

Nicola Connolly is a nurse.

She is also a serial killer.

For fourteen years she has hidden her dark appetite behind a starched
uniform and a polite smile, quietly dispensing death to her elderly
patients. Her method is untraceable. Her control is absolute.

Until the nightmares begin.

Now, every time Nicola sleeps, she is forced to witness the brutal
crimes of another killer - a sadistic monster dubbed "Picasso". Bound
by a terrifying psychic connection, Nicola's meticulously planned life
is thrown into a waking hell where she can smell and feel her rival's
horrific crimes.

Desperate to stop the nightly visions and regain control of her life,
Nicola takes a massive risk: she goes to the police.

Exhausted and burnt out DI Matt Foley and DS Tom Hudson are desperate
for a lead, but acting on Nicola's 'premonitions' means opening their
minds to something altogether more terrifying...

Praise for Valerie Keogh:

'Keogh is the queen of compelling narratives and twisty plots' Jenny
O'Brien

'A wonderful book, I can't rate this one highly enough. If only
there were ten stars, it's that good. Valerie Keogh is a master
story-teller, and this is a masterful performance.' Anita Waller

'Keogh is no. 1 for a reason, and this is another perfect slice of
domestic noir. A definite 5 stars.' Keri Beevis
