Heartbreaker

A Tinder of Terror

In the shadowed streets of contemporary London, single women vanish without warning—each abducted after meeting a charming stranger online. Journalist Emma Carlisle’s sister, Sophie, is the latest to disappear, her last message reading simply “He’s perfect.” Determined to uncover the truth behind this carousel of heartbreak, Emma retraces Sophie’s digital footprints, navigating a labyrinth of dating apps, double lives, and concealed identities. With every profile she clicks, Emma senses she’s getting closer to a killer who knows how to mask malice behind a winning smile.

Shattered Trust

As Emma’s investigation deepens, she enlists the expertise of Detective Inspector Patrick Stride and psychological profiler Dr. Helen Grace—partners who have honed their skills on London’s darkest cases. Together, they delve into the psyche of a murderer who preys on vulnerability, reconstructing each victim’s final hours through forensic evidence and social media timestamps. When the killer begins taunting them with cryptic messages—references to Emma’s own past relationships—the pursuit becomes personal, and every ally risks becoming a suspect.

Race Against the Night

With time running out and the body count rising, Emma and her allies must outwit an adversary who always seems one step ahead. From deserted underground stations to opulent penthouse parties, the clues lead to a climactic confrontation on the frozen banks of the Thames. As the killer’s ultimate motive is laid bare, Emma faces a choice: sacrifice her own safety to save the next victim, or watch another life slip through her fingers. In a heart-stopping finale, trust proves more fragile than love, and redemption may come at the highest price.
