"Accomplished writing from one of the best authors in the UK." M.W. Craven, award-winning and bestselling author of the Washington Poe series
Suspended. Sidelined. But Detective Inspector Solomon Gray can't walk away from a case, no matter where it comes from.
Notorious gangster, Frank McGavin offers Gray a job: examine the conviction of Daryl Kershaw, a man who's spent over a decade in prison for a brutal gangland murder. Gray doesn't trust McGavin, but when Gray discovers his own boss played a key role in putting Kershaw away, Gray can't ignore the case. If the original investigation was rigged, it could expose a corruption scandal at the highest level. If it wasn't, Gray is doing the dirty work of a criminal.
At the same time, another crime is unfolding, one the police refuse to take seriously. Women are being targeted, their lives ripped apart by deepfake videos designed to ruin them. As Gray hunts for the truth, both investigations pull him towards a reckoning that could cost him everything.
Two cases. One disgraced detective. And secrets someone will kill to protect.
Can Gray uncover the truth before it destroys him?
