The Puppet Show is a dark, gripping, and ingeniously plotted British crime thriller that introduces the unforgettable detective duo of Washington Poe and Tilly Bradshaw. When a series of bodies are found burned in ancient stone circles in the Lake District, disgraced detective Poe is reluctantly drawn back into action. Teamed with brilliant but socially awkward analyst Bradshaw, he faces a sadistically clever killer who stages elaborate crime scenes as twisted artistic displays. This novel delivers razor-sharp pacing, forensic authenticity, and a shocking twist that will leave readers breathless, establishing Craven as a master of modern crime fiction.
