About the book

Synopsis

Two teenage girls are victims of a bloody Valentine's Day shooting; one survives, the other is less fortunate...

It's one of a rising number of violent incidents in the city, and DI Charlie Resnick, nearing retirement, is hauled back to the front line to help deal with the fallout. But when the dead girl's father seeks to lay the blame on DI Lynn Kellogg, Resnick's colleague and lover, the line between personal and professional becomes dangerously blurred.

As Lynn, shaken by this very public accusation, is forced to question her part in the teenager's death, Resnick struggles against those in the force who disapprove of his maverick ways. But when the unimaginable occurs, an emotional Resnick will need all his strength to see justice done.

What the critics say

If anyone deserves to nudge Ian Rankin from his post as Britain's bestselling crime writer, it's Harvey.
- Kirkus Review

Impassioned ... heartbreaking ... Confirms Harvey as one of our most accomplished writers in any genre
- Sunday Telegraph

Authoritative ... visceral, engaged, and yes, unputdownable
- Independent

Sharp plotting, great characterisation and a powerful narrative; it's as good as they get
- Observer

Hoodie gang fights, murder, people trafficking, gun-running. Yes, we're back in Nottingham, an ordinary city with everyday British problems, brilliantly chronicled by John Harvey, who paints a better picture of the difficulties police face than the ten o'clock news
- Daily Mail

Expertly crafted
- Sunday Times
