Meanwhile, something is brewing in the criminal underworld. Whispers of a big job have reached the Met s Flying Squad. Something is going to be stolen, and soon. Something worth GBP500m.

But what? And where? And how does it relate to the body under the overpass? It should be a simple case: stop the burglary, crack the gang, find the murderer – but for Gillard, once again it s personal…

Fast-paced and utterly unputdownable, the next instalment of the DCI Gillard series is perfect for fans of Robert Bryndza, Stuart Macbride and Faith Martin.
