The first in a gripping new crime thriller series, perfect for fans of Joseph Knox and Ian Rankin. DS Joe Romano has been working dead-end cases since returning to Leeds from a stint at Interpol. But that's all about to change. When small-time drug dealer Craig Shaw goes missing, nobody but Romano wants to waste much time investigating. Until Shaw turns up dead. Romano is partnered with the straight-talking DS Rita Scannon-Akhtar. Together the pair delve into the murky world of right-wing activists and drug dealer rivalries. But when a second body turns up, with no connection to the first victim beyond the fact they were both criminals, the stakes suddenly get higher. They need to act fast, because the killer is trying to send a message. And they're not going to stop until they're caught.
