A great story from an insightful author." - Veritas Vincit Review " The author weaves a fascinating and compelling story that captures the reader instantly and never lets go. In this world, seduction is a principal instrument for control, influence, espionage, sabotage and just sheer pleasure.

    The killer, nicknamed Spartacus by the media, did not flee the scene immediately; instead, he stayed to carve Roman Numerals onto his victims' chests. This was the beginning of a month-long killing spree, each murder taking a step closer to home. Seventeen-year-old Jeffrey Allen was to be the final victim, on the final day of the month. Instead, he became the only survivor, and the only real witness. The killings ended as suddenly as they began. Jeffrey relocated to London, changing his name, and his identity, to Marcus Clancy. His past life became merely a dark secret. On 1st June 2018, 30 years to the day since the first killing, a mysterious figure refers to Marcus by his old name, through closing lift doors. Is Spartacus back? If so, has he returned to finish what he failed to do thirty years ago? And so begins 30 days of terror for Marcus Clancy, culminating in dramatic fashion on the final day of June. 30 DAYS IN JUNE is Chris Westlake's third novel, and his first crime thriller. He is currently writing his second crime thriller, and is on schedule to have it completed in 2020.
