The new psychological thriller from the bestselling author of The Straw Men and The Intruders is a heart-stopping tale of secrets, lies and our culpability in our own misfortunes — the bad things in the world and the bad things we do to each other. On a beautiful summer's afternoon four-year-old Scott Henderson walked out onto a jetty over a lake in Black Ridge, Washington State. He never came back. John Henderson's world ended that day, but three years later he's still alive. Living a life, of sorts. Getting by. Until one night he receives an email from a stranger who claims to know what happened to his little boy. Against his better judgement Henderson returns to Black Ridge, unleashing a terrifying sequence of events that threatens to destroy what remains of everything he once held dear. Bad things don't just happen to other people — they're waiting round the corner for you too. And when they start to make their way in through the cracks in your life, you won't know until it's far too late...

Stephen King called Michael Marshall's debut novel The Straw Men, a masterpiece... brilliantly written and scary as hell.

The electrifying story of a man on the fast track to success who finds that his life has been chillingly modified by someone, somewhere with a very different master plan for his future, Killer Move is a remarkably intelligent, genuinely creepy thriller from Phillip K. Dick Award-winner Marshall.
