Ashes on the Thames

Michael Osei, thirty-eight, is pulled from a South London canal. The police rule it drowning, drugs in his system, case closed. But his family refuses the lie. Rumours circle of Greywater, a private military company with friends in high places and enemies in every street. Files disappear. Witnesses vanish. Questions multiply. And into the silence steps Ashford - six-foot-six, scarred, relentless. A man the state betrayed, now hunting the truth with his fists. In a city bought and sold, justice demands a heavy price. The deeper the conspiracy, the bloodier the reckoning.
