'One of the most frightening books I've ever read...Hayder’s gory insights into the dark side are compelling'
GUARDIAN
 

Midsummer, and in an unassuming house on a quiet residential street on the edge of Brockwell Park in south London, a husband and wife are discovered. Badly dehydrated, they’ve been bound and beaten, the husband is close to death. But worse is to come: their young son is missing.
When DI Jack Caffery of the Met’s AMIT squad is called in to investigate, the similarities to events in his own past make it impossible for him to view this new crime with the necessary detachment. And as Jack digs deeper, as he attempts to hold his own life together in the face of ever more disturbing revelations about both the past and the present, the real nightmare begins…

Horrifying, unforgettable, intense, THE TREATMENT is a novel that touches the raw nerve of our darkest imaginings.

'Incredibly compelling...a first class shocker...horrifying, unforgettable and intense'

'Bleak, powerful...The Treatment is cleverly plotted and Caffery is a believable creation'
OBSERVER

'Chilling...the book is surprisingly hard to put down. The plot develops with satisfying unpredictability; the characters are compellingly drawn...its final twist a bravura savagery'
DAILY TELEGRAPH

'Mo Hayder’s debut, Birdman, was deservedly an unqualified success...and Hayder has lost none of her descriptive expertise along the way'
TIME OUT

'With Birdman Hayder was described as the new Thomas Harris...this time around, however, Hayder stands on her own two feet and gets much nearer the mark'
