Summary
A security officer is assassinated. A small child grieves for his father. A psychopath commits their first crime....
A frightened Russian woman seeks DCI Hanlon's help in finding her missing husband. Hanlon's not keen on the case. Until she hears a name she recognises only too well. Arkady Belanov, sadistic owner of an exclusive brothel in Oxford is involved.
And when DCI Enver Demirel, her former partner and friend, disappears, Hanlon is determined to solve the case.
Forced into an uneasy alliance with the London underworld, the race to him from the blood-stained hands of the Russian mafia is underway...
Another gripping case for the unstoppable DCI Hanlon. Perfect for fans of Angela Marsons, Lisa Regan and Mark Dawson.
This book was previously published as A Hard Woman To Kill by Alex Howard.

Entertaining
I still can’t get over my disappointment that Handlen PI is totally forgotten in this series.
But this book is entertaining enough

What a force to be reckoned with!!!
Another great chapter in the life of DCI Hanlon,, edge of your seat story lines brought to life by good narration. Can't wait to get the next book in the series started.

Irritating narrator
A lively yarn spoiled by a hesitant, peculiarly spasmodic presentation. Also a certain ignorance of common terms. A Massey Ferguson is pronounced as spelt; it's not a "Macy" Ferguson, and an Islay malt comes from Islay, pronounced I-lay, not Iss-lay - to mention just two. The other narrator of the Alex Coombs books is miles better.

I love DCI Hanlon
She’s a hard case for sure, but she’s usually on the side of right. Great romp with lots of edge of seat moments. An enjoyable read.

*Thrilling*
After what went down in the previous book, a decision was made by her boss to place DCI Hanlon in missing persons attached to another force. This was to keep her safe… So when a Russian woman turns up wanting help to find her missing husband who she fears has been killed, Hanlon starts to zone out. Seconds later she hears a name she knows of so, so well….
In the meantime her previous partner DI Demirel has been told to quietly make enquiries about some ruthless Russians it backfires when he walks into a trap. Soon a colleague from a force who is sweet on Demirel reluctantly calls Hanlon, all bets are off when the two women join forces it becomes a race to find him. The trouble is there is more than one corrupt police officer’s in the mix, plus a turf war, drugs, violence for sport, torture with Hanlon charging towards it all.
Hanlon is fearless it was hard to put the book down. This is a high adrenaline & thrilling read, the best one yet

Great novel.
Yet again the novel was spoilt by bad narration. Unnatural gaps within sentences, not in line with the punctuation. Bad pronunciation. Other Alex Coombes novels have been enjoyable with a different narrator. Shame really as the plot and storyline is not being represented to it's best.
