A pulsating psychological thriller that takes you from the dark\nheart of a cold English city to the searing white-heat of an\nAustralian wilderness …

\n

By Merseyside standards it’s been some time since a decent\ncorpse arrived on his patch, but now, on a bone-cold October\nmorning, Detective Inspector Frank Keane’s wait is over.

\n

The son of Keane’s old boss, the legendary DI Menno Koopman, has\nbeen discovered dead twelve thousand miles from his Australian\nhome, lashed to a scaffolding pole on Liverpool’s bleak shoreline.\nIt’s the start of a vicious cycle of violence spanning half the\nglobe.

\n

For Koopman, who turned his back on a thirty-year career in the\ncity to live the quiet life in northern New South Wales, the death\nof a son he never knew means a return to England and the past he’d\nleft behind.

\n

Koopman has not been forgotten in his old hunting ground - not\nby his former colleagues, and not by the enemies waiting for him.\nAs the body count rises in Liverpool and Australia, Keane and\nKoopman’s search for the killer becomes a fight for survival.
