Tom Thorne Series Book 01

It's rare for a young woman to die from a stroke and when three such deaths occur
in short order it starts to look like an epidemic. Then a sharp pathologist notices
traces of benzodiazepine in one of the victim's blood samples and just traceable
damage to the ligaments in her neck, and their cause of death is changed from
'natural' to murder.

The police aren't making much progress in their hunt for the killer until he appears
to make a mistake: Alison Willetts is found alive and D.I. Tom Thorne believes the
murderer has made a mistake, which ought to allow them to get on his tracks. But it
was the others who were his mistakes: he doesn't want to take life, he just wants to
put people into a state where they cannot move, cannot talk, cannot do anything but
think.

When Thorne, helped by the neurologist looking after Alison, starts to realise what
he is up against he knows the case is not going to be solved by normal methods -
before he can find out who did it he has to understand why he's doing it.
