Overview

‘One of the most compelling concepts I’ve read in years’ Robert Rutherford AN ADDRESS TO DIE FOR… The heart of every town in America just became a target. There is a killer on the loose. He has committed four murders in four weeks, each of which have only one thing in common. The victims’ address: 138 Main Street. For FBI Special Agent Ben Walker and his rookie colleague, Officer Zoe Hill, the case is unlike any they have seen before. They already know where the murderer will strike: the problem is that there are over seven thousand Main Streets in the USA. And they have no clue which one will be next. But these attacks are only the beginning. When the Main Street Killer’s manifesto is released to the media, his demands become clear, as do the consequences if they aren’t met. With every town in the country at imminent risk, the pressure is mounting on Ben and Zoe to stop the killer before he can carry out his threat. But with their target always several steps ahead, and over three and a half million square miles of ground to cover, they’ll have to find him first . . .

‘One of the most compelling concepts I’ve read in years. Gavin Bell takes you on a terrifying journey of a country cowering in fear, where every chapter layers on enough twists and tension to last a lifetime! An absolute barnstormer of a book!’ Robert Rutherford, author of the Sunday Times bestseller Seven Days ‘A killer premise, beautifully executed. Gavin Bell has created the ultimate needle-in-a-haystack thriller’ C. S. Robertson, author of The Trials of Marjorie Crowe ‘Taut, gripping, and ingenious. A blockbuster of a thriller’ Tony Kent, author of Killer Intent ‘It's that rarest of books – a thrillingly original concept, executed flawlessly. The blurb alone had my mind racing with the possibilities – a truly horrifying prospect for law enforcement (but a brilliant one for readers!). With a sharply drawn cast of characters to complete the jeopardy, this is top-notch thriller writing. The hook is one of those ones that's so simple to grasp and so immediately gripping, you kick yourself for not thinking of it first – and the story more than lives up to its promise’ Rod Reynolds, author of the Detective Casey Wray series ‘138 Main Street  kept me on the edge of my seat from the first page to the last - such an unusual, exciting premise that is perfectly executed. A must-read for fans of Harlan Coben and Linwood Barclay’ Lisa Hall, author of The Wife Swap ‘A cracking book that lives up to the knockout premise. Brilliantly written, and as taut as a piano wire, but with plenty of gripping action and so many twists and turns that keep you guessing until the final chapter. Superb’ Neil Lancaster, author of The Dark Heart
