The Last Victim

A killer paralyzed one victim right on a crowded subway platform during rush hour – and threw them under a train. He drowned another in alcohol. And this is just the beginning. Each murder is exotic and does not resemble... the others. It seems there is no connection between them. But there is… For detective Becky Vincent, this investigation could be a leap in her career. All it takes is "the slightest bit": to find the right face among a sea of faces on the subway cameras. Becky turns to Joe Russell from the semi-official department of the London police, whose staff are known as super-recognizers. Their phenomenal memory contains a vast database of different people's faces, allowing them to recognize faces more effectively than a computer and to construct chains of associations inaccessible to an ordinary person. Russell turns on his unique abilities to the max. But time is not on their side. The killer is crossing out more and more names from his list, operating according to a logic known only to him. How to find the connection between the victims before he reaches the last one?
