When a retired detective with a nose for trouble wanders into a town hiding a deadly secret …

‘When Steve Higgs writes, he hits it out of the park. Every book is a fast-paced thrill-fest, but somehow he always finds time to make me laugh out loud between the action.’

Complete Series. Listen to every audiobook (the dog doesn't die)

Albert Smith might be retired, but a long career as a police detective has left him with skills that just won’t switch off. So on a walking tour of the British Isles, it doesn’t take long for his eyes to spot something he wasn’t supposed to see.

But exposing one crime leads to another, and all too soon Albert comes to believe they might just be linked.

On the trail of a shadowy figure orchestrating a nationwide campaign, man and dog will find themselves in more trouble than they can handle.

But Albert’s got very little to lose, and his sense of justice remains a guiding light, so when he knows the sensible choice would be to quit, that’s when he’s at his most dangerous.
