Book description
DETECTIVE JOHNNY MANN IS BACK
Missing children. An evil racket. A race against time …
Summoned to meet his boss, rebellious Detective Johnny Mann expects to
be told that he is being demoted. Instead he is ordered to lead the
investigation into the kidnapping of Amy Tang - the illegitimate
daughter of a major player in the skin trade, CK Leung.
Mann is reluctant to help - he has crossed paths with CK before- but he
has no choice.
Nine-year-old Amy is the third child to be kidnapped and held for a
vast sum of money, but while the other two children were released after
the vast ransom was paid, Amy is still being held captive.
Mann's investigation takes him to London, where he teams up with DC
Becky Stamp. Within days of his arrival, an arson attack kills twelve
women and children. The charred bodies of the victims are found chained
to their beds - their injuries rendering them identifiable…
What is the link between the kidnapping of Amy in Hong Kong and the
deaths of these women and children and can Mann discover the truth
before it's too late.
Prepare to be terrorised all over again with this disturbingly
addictive thriller from the writer hailed as the female James Patterson.
