Brutal cop, DS Mike Blake is no stranger to violence. He finds himself caught in a web of conspiracy, corruption, deceit and murder when investigating the cold case of a Politician’s missing daughter. If he solves the case, the elite in power will make sure he won’t be prosecuted for the death in custody of a young black teenager. Solving the case will lead to his redemption, but ultimately he could pay the price and his life will spiral into a deeper hell. Which leads him to a Rock Star who has sold his soul to the Devil, and Gangsters who want to protect a secret. A multi-layered neo-noir thriller, peeling away to reveal the dark conspiracies in today’s society. A Very British Thriller set in the backdrop of a bloody scandal that has rocked the Government. The Police, Politicians & the Underworld fear the rise of anger against them in the Streets & will do anything in their power to suppress it.
