A British police detectiveās latest case gets curiouser and curiouser in this hard-hitting novel by the author of The Devilās Line.
DSI Billie Wildeās romantic relationship is intenseābut itās nothing compared to the pressure of her latest case, especially since the new chief of police is gunning for her squad.
