Blue Monday (Frieda Klein Series, Book #1) by Nicci French
Frieda Klein is a psychotherapist and insomniac who believes that the world is a mess, uncontrollable place. She spends her nights walking along the ancient rivers that lie beneath modern London. Her life is one of austerity, personal integrity, and order.
When five-year-old Matthew Farraday is abducted, Frieda cannot ignore the fact that he perfectly matches a boy one of her patients describes from his fantasies. Haunted by dreams in which he hungers for a child, Alan Dekker is desperate. But would he steal one?
Before long, Frieda finds herself serving as the reluctant sidekick of the acerbic Detective Chief Inspector Karlsson, at the center of a frantic race to find the kidnapper.
The first in a remarkable new series, Blue Monday draws readers into a troubled world in which the terrors of the mind spill over into real life.
