About the Book

New knee, new danger.Fresh from his recovery from knee surgery and an ordeal that took him to the brink, DCI Simon Fenchurch is back on the job with renewed vigour... and a new boss.

On the gritty streets of East London, DCI Simon Fenchurch is on the hunt for a sadistic predator. Seventies rock legend Rusty Rivers—Britain’s answer to Neil Young—is found mutilated in his opulent Greenwich mansion, and Fenchurch’s Major Investigation Team races against time to catch the perpetrator.

Their pursuit leads them to Kanyif Iqbal, a dangerous Scottish rapper with a shocking motive: he claims Rivers was hiding a dark secret involving a missing 13-year-old girl. As Fenchurch’s own painful past resurfaces, his resolve to uncover the truth becomes an obsession. Rivers denies the accusation, but Fenchurch won’t stop until he’s scoured the British Isles to bring justice to those who deserve it most—and discover her location.

In this heart-pounding police procedural, will DCI Fenchurch find the truth before it’s too late?
