YOU SAW IT. YOU WERE TOO SCARED TO ACT. BUT NOW IT’S COMING FOR YOU... From the mind behind the international bestseller The Whisper Man comes a new nightmare -- You never forget the day you meet a serial killer. Dan was just a teenager when he saw the man made of smoke, silent, watchful, vanishing into the mist. He was too scared to move, too scared to stop him. He’s carried the guilt ever since. Now a criminal psychiatrist, Dan spends his life trying to understand the darkest minds. But when his father disappears, he’s pulled back to the remote island he once called home, where something unsettling is waking. A body has been found. The past is reaching through the fog. And the man made of smoke might never have left. This time, Dan has to face what’s been waiting in the dark. -- Praise for The Man Made of Smoke ‘The Man Made of Smoke was in equal parts terrifying, creepy, thrilling and moving’ Marnie Riches ‘A haunting, atmospheric story...Truly a white-knuckle read from start to finish’ Tracy Sierra ‘Creepy and atmospheric from the first page, The Man Made Of Smoke is as well-written as it is tense’ Rachel Wolf 'Balancing his trademark hint of the supernatural with very real fears, this is a book full of regret and grief, but most of all heart' Sam Holland, author of The Echo Man 'I tore through this gritty tale of guilt, grief and the ghosts that haunt us. The twists are exceptionally well executed, the emotional through line compelling, and the mercurial baddie is genuinely unsettling' Josh Winning, author of Heads Will Roll 'Written with skill and intelligence, and told with empathy and nuance, this is a novel that’s not to be missed. I loved every word' Rebecca Thorne, author of The Grief House 'Creepy, compelling and so fiendishly tricky, I couldn’t put it down. Another surefire winner from the king of haunting!' Natalie Chandler, author of The Voices
