Having recently read and enjoyed another Tania Carver novel: The Creeper, I was looking forward to reading this, her first novel. Having read both books I would suggest that anyone interested should read The Surrogate before reading The Creeper. The reason being that Detective Inspector Phil Brennan and his team including profiler Marina also feature in The Creeper and whilst it is a different story altogether, knowledge of the characters of Phil and Marina is beneficial prior to reading The Creeper.
