Canal of Death — Nic Saint

When darkness descends on Ghent, Chief Inspector Holt is drawn into his most chilling case yet.
What begins as a desperate search for a kidnapped plastic surgeon takes a sinister turn when the mutilated body of a woman is discovered in one of the city's canals. The evidence is fragmented, the motives unclear-but one question looms large: are the two cases connected?
As Holt races to untangle the threads, his team is thrown into chaos. A brutal attack on one of their own leads them to secretly pursue a shadowy trail, defying orders and risking everything.
But as the investigation spirals, the stakes grow deadly-and the killer's sights shift dangerously close to Holt's personal world. Betrayal, obsession, and violence collide in a nerve-shredding race against time.
For Holt, this isn't just a case. It's a battle for survival. And in Ghent's darkest corners, no one is safe.
