Eeny Meeny is the rocket-paced serial-killer thriller debut from M. J. Arlidge. A young couple wakes disorientated, trapped and without food or water. There's no escape. Instead there's a gun loaded with a single bullet and a mobile phone with charge enough only to deliver a shor...t message: when one of you kills the other, the survivor will walk free. Other pairs are soon taken. The victims appear to be chosen at random, but the planning is meticulous. And until DI Helen Grace can establish a connection, a twisted killer will remain out of reach. A breakthrough is elusive, but then the investigation begins to turn full circle...Introducing M. J. Arlidge's Detective Inspector Helen Grace. Eeny Meeny is an electrifying debut, with the nerve-shredding intensity of Saw and Along Came a Spider. Fans of James Patterson and Mo Hayder should pay attention. M. J. Arlidge has worked in television for the last 15 years, specialising in high end drama production. Arlidge trained at the BBC, before spending seven years at Ecosse Films, producing series such as Mistresses (BBC1) and Cape Wrath (C4/Showtime). For the last five years he has run an independent drama production company, producing a number of crime serials for ITV and is currently working on a major adaptation of Ernest Hemingway's A Farewell to Arms for BBC/FX.
