Synopsis

In a quiet residential area in London, a couple is discovered bound and imprisoned in their own home. Savagely battered and severely dehydrated, the worst revelation is yet to come: their eight-year-old son has been abducted. But when the body is found and forensic evidence turns the case on its head, revealing disturbing parallels to events in Detective Caffery's own past, Caffery realizes he's dealing with much more sinister forces than he'd anticipated - and finds it increasingly difficult to maintain his professional distance. As the evidence mounts and Caffery struggles to hold his own life together, the case hurtles toward a shocking conclusion.

Goodreads review by Karin on April 07, 2014

Is someone asked me to teach a class in thriller writing (and please don't because I'd be crap), this is the only textbook I would need.

RIP Clare Dunkel who used the name Mo Hayder 1 January 1962 to 27 July 2021. Only 59. That's so sad. Original review follows. ******* In this ugly story about depravity, child murder and florid insanity we follow your standard flawed rule-breaking detective hero for the most part, but dive off into othe......more

Goodreads review by Magdalena aka A Bookaholic Swede on August 27, 2017

Dual review with Swedish first and then English! SWEDISH REVIEW Behandlingen är bok två i Jack Caffery serien, men kan läsas fristående. Vad kan jag annat än säga än att när man inte tror att det kan bli värre så blir det så i boken. Behandlingen är i mångt och mycket en mycket obehaglig bok. D......more
