A DI's secrets come under scrutiny as his police colleagues investigate his wife's murder, in this shocking new thriller by the author of Mercy Killing . . .
DI Milton Bowman's morning commute takes a tragic turn when he's involved in a serious car accident and is taken to the hospital. DI Harry Powell, a close friend and coworker, goes to break the news to Bowman's wife, Linda—only to discover she's been murdered.
As the team, including DC Hazel Hamilton, delves into the investigation, every facet of Bowman's life comes under scrutiny. Suspicion and shock ripple through the ranks as they uncover a web of deceit that has ensnared them all for years. Trust is shattered, and everyone is a suspect—the Bowman family, friends, colleagues, and even Harry Powell himself. In this tangled mystery that draws from the author's twenty-five years of police work, nothing is as it seems—and no one is telling the whole truth.
