TV starlet Lavinia Johnstone has 9,000 followers on Instagram. One of them hates her. And that person now has her daughter.
When ex-DCI Amber Fearns hears about the kidnapping of little Nica, she offers her services as an external consultant to London’s Metropolitan Police.
Both Amber and her colleagues know only too well that in child abductions the first 24 hours are crucial. A desperate race against the clock begins.
Time ticks by and there is no trace of Nica. Until a dubious ransom note turns up.
Join Amber Fearns on her most difficult case to date.
Child’s Play is the third book in the Amber Fearns London thriller series by Denise Yoko Berndt, combining psychological suspense with police procedural. All novels in this series can be read as a standalone.
If you like Lynda La Plante, Robert Bryndza, Mark Billingham, Sharon Bolton, Biba Pearce, and Patricia Gibney, you will be gripped by Child's Play.
關於作者
Denise Yoko Berndt got her first library card aged two and wrote her first short story aged eight. The plot? A female bank director robs her own bank. It took a while until she released her first novel (The Poriomaniacs - Dead in Dornbirn in 2006) but she stuck to a life of crime (in books that is!).
Four cozy crime novels featuring all-girl rock band The Poriomaniacs as reluctant sleuths were followed by four thrillers set in the quaint German university town of Tubingen, a standalone thriller based on the ancient myth of Orpheus and Eurydice and since 2020 several volumes of her London thriller series with ex-DCI Amber Fearns as the protagonist.
She studied screenwriting at UCLA Extension where she developed the story that became her novel Flammenmund.
When she’s not busy travelling the world, researching new book ideas, her favourite place to be is London.
