She' s the best we' ve got.\"-- New York Times Book Review\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Internationally best-selling crime writer Val McDermid' s work speaks for itself: her books have sold millions of copies worldwide, won numerous accolades, and attracted a devoted following of readers around the globe. Her latest,  Cross and Burn , picks up where  The Retribution  left off: following the best crime-fighting team in the UK-- clinical psychologist Tony Hill and police detective Carol Jordan-- who when we last saw them were barely speaking, and whose relationship will now be challenged even further.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Guilt and grief have driven a wedge between long time crime-fighting partners psychologist Tony Hill and ex-DCI Carol Jordan. But just because they're not talking doesn't mean the killing stops.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Someone is killing women. Women who bear an unsettling resemblance to Carol Jordan. And when the evidence begins to point in a disturbing direction, thinking the unthinkable seems the only possible answer. Cornered by events, Tony and Carol are forced to fight for themselves and each other as never before.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e An edge-of-your-seat page-turner from one of the best crime writers we have,  Cross and Burn  is a chilling, unforgettable read.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\" Smooth.
