About the book
\"An impressive feat of writing that combines imagination, empathy, and a rock-hard edge — and never fails in its duty to maintain the ratcheting tension of a first-rate thriller.\" — The Sunday Times (U.K.)
Jenny Aaron was the best of the best. An expert marksman and trained in four martial arts techniques, she was the star member of an elite team charged with tracking Germany's most dangerous criminals. But when a disastrous mission ended in irreversible blindness, Jenny was forced to abandon her dangerous career. Five years later, she's still haunted by her failure when she is called upon to investigate the brutal murder of a prison psychologist. Now she must test the new skills that she's acquired in her world of darkness — but are they enough to battle a ruthless killer whose intelligence and daring match her own?
\"I learnt so much about blindness that is not only inspirational but deeply moving. A rare and magnificent book.\" — Ken Bruen, author of The Guards and The Killing of the Tinkers, winner of The Shamus Award and Edgar Allan Poe Award finalist
\"Better than Bond.\" — Die Zeit
“Gripping and action-packed. A tough thriller with a fascinating heroine. You won't be able to put this down.” — Krimi
“For everyone who loves The Silence of the Lambs. Jenny Aaron is the blind Sherlock Holmes.” — Stefan Ahnhem, internationally bestselling author of the Fabian Risk thrillers
