Book description
Paramedic Lauren Yates stumbles into a world of trouble the night she
discovers a dead man in an inner city alley, for the killer lurks
nearby. When the murderer threatens to make her life hell if she tells
the police, she believes him - he's Thomas Werner, her sister's ex, and
a very bad man indeed. But when a stabbing victim tells her with his
dying breath that Werner attacked him too, she finds herself with blood
on her hands and Detective Ella Marconi on her back. Will Ella's
investigation put her career on the line, just when she's finally got
her foot in the door? And can Lauren keep her family safe before Werner
makes good on his promise, or will they all pay the ultimate price?
'Howell may have left the ambulance service but she can still drive a
narrative at full speed with the sirens blaring. Pass me the oxygen'
