About this listen

A double murder. A divided city. A detective who won’t walk away. The author of One Bad Turn delivers this pulse-pounding crime thriller.

When teenagers Jamal Deng and Aisha Saforo are shot dead on the edge of a notorious estate, DS Chris Ashcroft knows why he’s been assigned the case—and he doesn’t like it one bit. Refusing to write the murders off as gang violence, Ashcroft insists on digging deeper—something doesn’t add up.

Jamal and Aisha came from different worlds. They had no reason to be together....

As tensions in the city explode, Ashcroft is pulled into a deadly game that threatens the safety of those closest to him. And when a break finally comes in the form of dashcam footage, it leads him straight to the shocking truth....

For fans of Angela Marsons and M. W. Craven, this is a gritty, gripping crime thriller where justice is never black and white.

I think I've found a new author! what an interesting, thrilling tale of murder, people, relationships, gangs and policing. There was a mixture of mystery, discovery, twists, and hold your breath moments which propelled me along wanting to see what came next.
