A killer is at work in the supposedly safe commuter belt. DCI Gillard needs answers fast....

Promising architect Peter Young is shot dead at his desk. DCI Craig Gillard is on the scene, looking at what appears to be a brutal and highly professional hit: two bullets, fired with ice-cold calm. Gillard knows that the most crucial question in solving the crime is one word: why?

Two weeks later, on the Lincolnshire coast, another body is found on a windswept beach. In this case there is no identity for the young man, just a curious brand burned into his neck. As the mystery deepens, Gillard is plunged into a case without answers, finding himself up against dark forces - people who believe in only two things: blood and a warped code of honour. This time lives are on the line, children's lives - as well as his own.

At breakneck pace and with a jaw-dropping twist, the suspense-filled second DCI Gillard crime thriller is perfect for fans of Robert Bryndza, Patricia Gibney and Faith Martin.

Well conceived. Well narrated. Love the authors writing style. Some light laugh moments but mostly serious and descriptive. As an American I like the British terms like torch, boot, punter, tart, and descriptive sayings that are different but understandable and kinda funny to hear.

Solid story. No idea how it was going to turn out.

This book was written after much research was done. It really makes our life seem even more simple and safe. I live in the USA and we have troubles but not like the ones in this book. The narrator is a magician with his voice.

The narrator once again performed exceptionally! The story this time with the same detective who was trying to find missing children getting caught up in an Albanian mafia mix up was so thrilling and exciting
