When Harpur and Iles are called in to investigate an undercover investigation gone wrong, they can sense dark, hazardous times ahead…
After a gang shooting involving an undercover police officer, Colin Harpur and his boss, Assistant Chief Constable Desmond Iles, are called to another Force’s ground to investigate what the Home Office sees as spectacular failings. Harpur can imagine the pressure the officer would have been under. If a gang decided to kill, a spy would have to go along with it.
But with the careers of fellow officers ― who might be in secret, dangerous alliance with villains ― at risk, Harpur knows that he and Iles have an exceptionally tough inquiry ahead.
Circa l’autore
Bill James has been called "the Elmore Leonard of Britain’s underworld" (Kirkus Reviews) and a "Master of Crime" in a mystery roundup by the London Sunday Times, which said, "There is nothing else quite like this series of police procedurals. James is concerned with the dilemmas and difficulties of policing Britain’s inner cities, and he addresses these in hard-edged narratives that leave readers gasping and flinching, praying the people in these stories never come to live in their streets." In addition to the Harpur and Iles series, James is a former journalist, and wrote for The Sunday Times, the Daily Mirror, the Spectator, the New Review and Punch. Married with four children, he lives in Wales.
