Inspector Wilkins was not a religious man, but on the journey to Canterbury, he prayed. He prayed for a finger-print, a stray fibre, a shoe-mark. He prayed for a witness . . .He prayed for a clue of any kind . . .
Donald Dorricks is on a mission. Nine psychotherapists to go and his crusade is complete. Yet even after giving himself up and confessing to the killings, he still protests his innocence. And just as Inspector Wilkins struggles to catch the killer, Dorricks' wife Verine attempts to understand the reasoning behind the murders. Then, as her husband's tale emerges, it reveals a past peppered with secrets from which Donald has never been able to escape. Until now . . .
A black comedy that mixes whodunit with whydunnit, 'Nine Lives' is the unsettling story of a very English murder - a novel of suspense, strangulation and psychotherapy.
