Urban Legends cover

Terrifyingly dark European crime for a crossover audience from acclaimed, Carneige shortlisted author, Helen Grant.

A group of story-tellers are disappearing one by one.

A young woman is haunted by her past.

A serial killer has one target he is desperate to hunt down.

Veerle is trying to lie low, to live as 'normal' a life as she possibly can. But when you've thwarted a serial killer, it's hard to do this.

There were times when I was almost too scared to turn the page . . . Well written and brilliantly paced . . . As it says on the cover: "No one is safe" * Parenting Without Tears *
Helen writes so perfectly, that you just can’t not read. She knows precisely how to play on all your inner fears, and then some * Bookwitch *
Urban Legends was an exciting end to the trilogy. There was heart-stopping action, surprises that shocked me . . . plenty of creepy abandoned buildings and plenty of atmosphere * Flutteringbutterflies.com *
Grant's pacing in Urban Legends is impeccable . . . just a perfect end to the series . . . I can’t recommend Urban Legends and its predecessors highly enough * A Fantastical Librarian *
Make[s] the kind of breathtaking journey I wanted to begin again the moment I'd finished * Awfully Big Reviews *
