From the author of The Jigsaw Man comes the next book in Nadine Matheson’s DI Henley series

In this room, no one can hear you scream…
The Serial Crimes Unit are called in to investigate when a local pastor is found stabbed to death. As DI Henley assesses the crime scene, she discovers a hidden door that conceals a room set up for torture – and bound to the bed in the middle of the room is the body of a man.
When another body is found, also tied down, Henley realises there’s someone out there torturing innocent people and leaving them for dead. But why?
There’s nothing that connects the victims. They didn’t know each other. Their paths never crossed. But someone has targeted them, and it’s up to Henley and the SCU to stop them before they find another binding room…

My Review:
The Binding Room is the brilliant new thriller by Nadine Matheson. Second in her DI Henley series, it is a gruesome, suspense filled thriller that keeps you on your toes from beginning to end. A tense and exciting read, The Binding Room is every bit as good as The Jigsaw Man, with a disturbing and intense storyline that delivers on every level.
The SCU are called in to investigate the murder of a local pastor. But as DI Anjelica Henley begins to assess the crime scene, she discovers a hidden door with a gruesome secret: a torture room with the body of a man bound to a bed in the middle of it. And then another body is found and DI Henley realises she may have a serial killer on her hands. Someone who is torturing innocent people and leaving them for dead.
But with the clock ticking and no apparent connection between the victims, can Anjelica and her team stop the killer before the body count rises and he or she claims yet another victim…
What follows is a dark, disturbing and intense thriller that is as chilling as it is exciting. Nadine Matheson continues to build on what went before in The Jigsaw Man, creating multi faceted characters who I can’t wait to learn even more about as the series continues.
The Binding Room is a stylish and fast paced thriller that I would highly recommend.
