Cheerleader

London is under attack from a killer who strikes with no restraint, leaving behind a series of bodies whose victims seem to have nothing in common. Or so it appears.

Raagavi Saranthan has only recently started working on the London Underground, and she finds herself moving through a city where death is everywhere. She cannot make sense of why the people around her are being brutally killed, particularly since many of the dead are those who once made her life miserable.

Detective Chief Inspector Rachel Cortes is assigned to the case. She answers to no one and plays by her own rules, driven by a deep contempt for almost everyone she meets. Her task is to get inside the mind of a killer who believes the violence is justified and driven by vengeance. The investigation leads into a world of depravity, sexual danger and corruption, where the killer's own sense of right and wrong is held firmly in place. No boundary seems safe, and the Cheerleader will go as far as it takes.

Raagavi's fate is in the hands of others, and she has no control over it. Meanwhile, Cortes must work through a case in which a small slight or a careless lie can cost a life. Can she solve the mystery before more people die, or is this unsettlingly caring killer convinced that the violence is building a better world?
