Winner of the Crime Novel of the Year, Lazybones is the third novel in the bestselling Tom Thorne series, a shocking, unputdownable novel from the master of psychological thrills.

'Never loosens its grip on your throat' Daily Mail

It's only ten days since Douglas Remfry's release from prison, having served seven years for rape, and now he's dead: naked on a bare mattress in a grubby north London hotel room, his head hooded and his hands tied with a brown leather belt.

Someone knew he was coming out. Someone wanted to mete out some punishment of his own.

And when a second sex offender is found dead, DI Tom Thorne knows he has a vicious, calculating vigilante on his hands...
