A seemingly open-and-shut case becomes increasingly complicated for Detective Inspector Liam McLusky in this intriguing police procedural. It all seemed so simple: a murder; an obvious suspect; a shaky alibi: DI McLusky never had it so good. Until a second killing challenges all his earlier assumptions. With every new piece of evidence McLusky brings to light the case becomes more complicated. Does it have its roots in a disappearance eighteen years earlier or is it firmly based in the present? Meanwhile DI Kat Fairfield and DS Jack Sorbie are tasked with finding the daughter of a prominent Italian politician who has disappeared while on a student exchange programme at Bristol University. Neither is overjoyed to be lumbered with a routine missing person's case while McLusky heads a high-profile murder investigation. Until they find a dead body of their own. Language: English
