The compelling new paperback from the Cartier Diamond Dagger winner and Sunday Times bestselling author.
When a seventeen-year-old Moldovan boy is found dead on Hampstead Heath the case falls to DCI Karen Shields and her overstretched Homicide & Serious Crime team. Karen knows she needs a result. What she doesnt know is that her new case is tied to a much larger web of gang warfare and organised crime which infiltrates almost every aspect of London society.
Several hundred miles away in Cornwall DI Trevor Cordon is stirred from his day-to-day duties by another tragic London fatality. Travelling to the capital Cordon becomes entangled in a lethally complex situation of his own. A situation much closer to Karens case than either of them can imagine.
