A quiet town. A horrible incident. Things that don’t add up. – The highly-anticipated latest instalment of the DS Mc Avoy series from the Sunday Times best-selling, Kindle chart-topping author.
‘[A] dark, creepy, twisted mystery that will keep readers awake far into the night’ Booklist Starred Review
‘Mc Avoy is a true original’ Mick Herron
An unexpected invite to his estranged mother’s surprise birthday party at a fancy Durham hotel gives DI Aector Mc Avoy and his wife Roisin a chance for a well-deserved holiday. Off-duty, and still recovering from his previous injuries, Mc Avoy is determined to take advantage of the all-expenses-paid break, despite the old grudges and thick tension between himself and his step-family.
However, what should have been a relaxing, if awkward, getaway weekend turns out to be a full-on nightmare, when Mc Avoy finds himself in the middle of a town drama that involves the tragic demise of Ishmael Piper, a rock star’s millionaire son . . . and best friend of Mc Avoy’s charming, bullying step-brother.
With dark secrets slowly unravelling, Mc Avoy needs to put his personal issues aside to unmask the evil forces behind Ishmael’s mysterious death before he becomes a victim of them himself . . .
Dark settings, dark crimes and even darker souls – the critically acclaimed DS Mc Avoy police procedural series is a perfect pick for fans of Denise Mina, Val Mc Dermid and Peter Robinson.
