Finch is a born storyteller and writes with the authentic voice of the ex-copper he is." PETER JAMES "An ingenious and original plot. Compulsive reading." RACHEL ABBOTT "A deliciously twisted and fiendish set of murders and a great pairing of detectives." STAV SHEREZ "Avon's big star...part edge-of-the-seat, part hide-behind-the-sofa!
