When a series of brutally murdered young women are discovered — crimes separated by years yet bound by a single, terrifying pattern — detective superintendent Winnie Bates and forensic psychiatrist Carmine Delmonico must confront a killer whose capacity for evil defies rational comprehension. The investigation uncovers layer upon layer of psychological torment, forcing both investigators and reader to question how well we truly know the world around us.\n\nColleen McCullough, celebrated for her sweeping historical epics and her mastery of character-driven narrative, demonstrates in On Off that her storytelling power is equally formidable in the crime genre. With clinical precision and an unflinching eye for human darkness, she constructs a procedural thriller that is as intellectually rigorous as it is viscerally unsettling. The result is a novel that lingers long after the final page — a testament to McCullough's rare ability to illuminate the shadowed recesses of the human condition and leave readers questioning what horrors may still remain undiscovered.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49130714693851,"sku":"9780007805105-SECONDHAND","price":8.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/0823f2dd-8dc2-4efa-8dc8-1bf387e7a327.png?v=1786589069","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/9780007805105-secondhand-on-off","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
