'Police Procedural at its finest: detailed, magnificently researched and gripping. 5 stars.' Rachel Lynch
How do you catch a man's killer when everyone wanted him dead?
In Middlesbury, a rally is being held by the British Allegiance Party - a far-right group protesting against the opening of a new Mosque.
When the crowd disperses, a body is found in an alleyway. Tommy Meegan, the loud-mouthed leader of the group, has been stabbed through the heart.
Across town, a Muslim community centre catches fire in a clear act of arson, leaving a small child in a critical condition. And the tension which has been building in the town for years boils over.
DCI Warren Jones knows he can't afford to take sides - and must solve both cases before further acts of violent revenge take place. But, in a town at war with itself, and investigating the brutal killing of one of the country's most-hated men, where does he begin?
