Author:Jon Osborne
A criminal mastermind is carrying out a deadly game of murder on the streets of New York. Following the rules of chess he moves his victims around the city, leaving his sinister calling cards at each blood-soaked crime scene. But as the body count mounts, the New York police force are no nearer to catching this sadistic killer. And expert profiler, FBI Special Agent Dana Whitestone, is brought in to help.
Still bruised from her encounter with The Cleveland Slasher, Dana, and her partner Jeremy Brown, soon become embroiled in a macabre game of cat and mouse as they try to hunt down this highly intelligent but utterly ruthless murderer before he claims his next victim. And then they realise they might be up against not one killer but two - and all hell breaks loose...
If The Doll Princess was a startlingly original reimagining of noir, then Benn has upped his own game. Chamber Music takes all the genre’s most potent elements and makes them new and vital again.
