"October, 1995. Adrian Brown's second year at Leeds University is a blur of throbbing bass line and neon-lit nights out. However, a violent encounter with a man he met in a basement club has the power to sober him up.
Sheila Hargreaves, who has grown fond of Adrian following their brush with the infamous Lollipop Man, has written a book about the murders and is busy with a new TV show, Yorkshire Crimetime. And then her erratic co-presenter Tony Tranter goes missing, and his body turns up riddled with stab wounds. Could his death be linked to several violent attacks on men?
Moving from dark city corners to the glare of the TV studio lights, Sheila and Adrian find themselves on the trail of another killer."

I dived right into this as soon as I finished reading the first in this series, The Lollipop Man. I was curious as to where Adrian and Sheila were in their lives and how they had developed and I wasn't disappointed. This is the second in the series and I do think you need to have read the first to understand the back story of Adrian in particular but you might just get away with it as the author does provide some history.
The book takes place in Yorkshire in the 1990's and has a real eclectic set of characters which works really well. There a two story lines, each of which were equally as intriguing as each other and kept me guessing as to whether they were related or not. It is well paced and kept me reading to the end.
A good psychological thriller that I would recommend and thanks to the author, Allison and Busby and NetGalley for enabling me to read this, the second in a developing series.
