Dark Matter: A fast-paced psychological thriller and emotional roller-coaster

Personal tragedy gives D.S. Ross the daunting prospect of caring for his twelve-year-old autistic nephew, something he is ill-equipped to handle. As he learns and adapts, the killing doesn’t stop.

Racked by grief and loneliness, enraged by those he believes responsible for the death of his wife, one man thirsts for revenge. The Press labels him the BBQ Killer.

After being rejected and humiliated, another Killer hides in plain sight, cloaked in kindness and compassion. Patient yet lethal. Only revealed by happenstance.

As the body count rises, D.S. Eli Ross and his team are joined in the hunt by FBI Agent Sally Cope.

When Ross’s nephew, Ollie, is discovered to have been concealing his real self for complex reasons, he is revealed as a Savant with the intellect of Einstein but the emotional intelligence of a gnat. Cope recognizes his potential and risks her career by offering him an FBI consultancy contract. But where Ollie brings remarkable insights, he also brings emotional turmoil in equal measure.

Ross must now balance his nephew’s usefulness with a duty of care - something Ollie doesn’t understand.

Where Ollie can help identify the killers, Eli must get into their minds.

In one, he finds a man damaged by injustice and the cruelty of life; in the other, he finds an emotional vacuum with no soul.

In a race against time, Ross will be faced with choices. Choices with deadly consequences where his experience tells him he can’t save everyone.
