Book description
Why would a fifteen-year-old boy commit suicide? Mind you, who cares
when he's a no-good kid on trial for bludgeoning an elderly couple to
death?
But when the senior investigating officer is then found brutally
murdered, DI Charlie Resnick is put on the case, and uncovers some
sinister and startling revelations.
It also brings Resnick into contact with Hannah Campbell, with whom
he finds himself falling unexpectedly and awkwardly in love.
