Did you think this was the end? Think again… 👀
A desperate father…
Graham Blanks is having a very bad day. With his daughter’s life hanging in the balance, Graham finds himself in a race against time to get her the help she so desperately needs. But in the bustling city of York, Graham is faced with setback after setback and he’s beginning to lose his patience…
An escalation of violence…
As Graham becomes more out of control, his frustration and violence increases. And soon his victims begin to mount. Can anyone end his desperate and deadly spree?
A final reckoning.
DI Paul Riddick is a man who understands a father’s desperation all too well. He knows Blanks has to be apprehended, but only newly recovered from illness himself, Riddick is struggling. Will he be able to stop Blanks in time - or will his deadly spree spiral even further out of control?
In the shadow of York Minster, the fate of many lies in the hands of two men with nothing left to lose and time running out...
