Beginning with a flashback ten years previously and then a court hearing in the present day, an old case is re-examined. Former prosecutors, police and old colleagues are caught up in this latest instalment of the Nick Lafferty crime series. An action-packed thriller, with murder investigations, fragile loyalties, local politics and conflicting agendas all conspiring to culminate in a smart crime adventure. A four-star rating. With thanks to NetGalley and the author for a preview copy for review purposes.

Laverty is a very good series
A good three book series; good characters, plots and action ( tho a few questionable moments). The most distracting problems for me occurred in the final book when it seemed the editors must g ave fallen asleep. Shame!!
