Two sisters. One dead. When Athena's sister takes her own life a year after their mother's death, Athena suspects grief isn't the real reason. Especially when she discovers a list of men in her sister's diary. A coded message. Her suspicions grow, as one by one, she traces the men, and she soon finds herself on a twisted path of violence and self-doubt. The fight of her life. Some things are worth fighting for. The truth is one of them. WHAT READERS ARE SAYING ABOUT THE ONLY WEAPON IN THE ★★★★★ "The plot has many twists and different elements which keep you guessing the whole way through.

What a roller coaster of emotions, I chuckled, I had tears. I won’t give a description just to say that it is well worth reading. This lady is a great writer I thought that the Erica Cooper stories were great but this is even better.

I'm a perpetual series reader but couldn't turn down the opportunity of reading a standalone from one of my top ten authors. Loved hearing all about Athena. Faye proves, once again, she's a cracking storyteller.

A gripping read, kept you guessing until the end.

Another brilliant read from this local author. Found it hard to put the book down. Great characters and interesting how fate led a helping hand.

Great read

I live and work in the North Shields area so the setting was great. Really helped me set the scene. Good story and a bit different from the police procedurals I normally read.

This is the fourth book by B Baskerville which I have read and once again I have loved it. This differs from the DCI Cooper books as it is set in the world of Martial Arts. The characters are brilliant and I was instantly intrigued with Athena and her backstory. The plot has many twists and different elements which keep you guessing the whole way through. Great, gritty writing. Hugely recommend this book.
