FROM THE INTERNATIONALLY BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF FOLLOW THE BUTTERFLY
'A TENSE, DEFTLY CRAFTED GAME OF HUNTER-AND-HUNTED' DANIELLE RAMSAY, AUTHOR OF THE PERFECT HUSBAND
Once Ida nearly died at the hands of a killer. Now she's trying to live again, to forget the monsters in her head. But the nightmares are coming back, more terrible than ever.
Because Ida, working as a journalist, has uncovered evidence of a serial killer stalking Helsinki's streets.
And no one-not even homicide officer Kerttu Leppänen, tortured by her own demons-can stop them.
Sometimes the monsters are real. And hunting them can destroy you.
Martta Kaukonen lives in Helsinki. Before she became a full-time author, she was a film critic for Finland's biggest newspaper. Alongside writing, Martta loves psychological thrillers, film noir, flea markets, abandoned houses and travelling. Follow the Butterfly was her debut thriller - it was a critical and commercial hit in Finland, is being translated into twelve languages, has already made the Spiegel bestseller list in Germany and is being adapted for a TV series. Meet Me in the Darkness is its sequel.
David Hackston is a British translator of Finnish and Swedish literature and drama. He lives in Helsinki, where he works as a freelance translator. Notable publications include Land of Snow and Ashes by Petra Rautiainen, My Cat Yugoslavia and Crossing by Pajtim Statovci, all available from Pushkin Press.
