What to expect
They’re above the law and they’re watching her every move…
A compulsively readable thriller, perfect for fans of Mark Billingham and Peter Robinson.
The lines between good and bad are indistinguishable…
On the North Wales coast two people traffickers are brutally murdered; a drug dealer is mown down in inner-city Stockport and in a remote Pennine cottage a police informant is shot dead. Seemingly random, these murders are the work of one professional hitman.
Reluctantly, Marie Donovan takes on another undercover role and finds herself working with DI Jack Brennan, a high-flying The lines between good and bad are indistinguishable…
On the North Wales coast two people traffickers are brutally murdered; a drug dealer is mown down in inner-city Stockport and in a remote Pennine cottage a police informant is shot dead. Seemingly random, these murders are the work of one professional hitman.
Reluctantly, Marie Donovan takes on another undercover role and finds herself working with DI Jack Brennan, a high-flying detective with a tarnished career. Soon, mistrustful of each other and their superiors, both begin to suspect that they are mere pawns in a complex game of criminal rivalry and police corruption.
As Marie struggles to uncover the truth, she realises that nothing is as it seems. With every move, she draws the threat ever closer until ultimately the killer is watching Marie herself. Out on her own, she finds herself with no friends, no-one to trust and nowhere to hide.
Critics Review
-
‘A talent to be reckoned with … A strong story line, muscular prose and a real sense of pace; this is a police procedural for a new age’ Daily Mail
‘A relentlessly exciting debut crime novel.’ Hull Daily Mail
‘An atmospheric and exciting roller coaster ride through an investigation into police corruption … right up there with the best police procedural thrillers of the last few years.
Expect to hear much more of Walters in the future.’ Mark Timlin
