Description
“Classy and able thriller, with crunchy London backgrounds . . . An agile and ingenious plot . . . (The) forecast for the series is excellent.” -- Literary Review A married airline pilot lies dead in his London flat -- a shattered champagne bottle left protruding from his abdomen.
Film footage shows Teddy leaving Heathrow with an unidentified man. What secrets is he hiding?
Ex-cop turned private investigator Billy Rucker joins the case on the exhortation of Teddy's brother, a well-known MP. For Rucker it's the start of a lonely trail through the city, clutching a grainy black and white photograph and a gnawing suspicion at the pit of his stomach.
Until a chilling phone call in the night changes everything . . .
Packed with chilling suspense, Adam Baron is perfect for fans of Stuart MacBride, Robert Bryndza or Peter James.
