Book description
Alexander Fitzpatrick is one of the most wanted men in the Western
world. A Howard Marks character, but far more dangerous, his wealth,
accrued through drug-trafficking, runs into millions. For the past ten
years there has been no sighting of him. Has he gone to ground using an
alias, or is he dead?
When an ex-police officer from the murder squad is found shot in a
dank squat, Anna Travis is pulled onto the case. As the body count
rises and the investigation becomes ever more complex, suspicion falls
on Fitzpatrick. Is he still alive and in the UK? Could he be the
killer, with terrifying access to the most lethal drug in existence?
