Lynch, a burned out con-artist, arrives, broke, in London, trying not to dwell on the mistakes that got him there. When he bumps into Bobbie, a rehab-bound heiress - and when she briefly mistakes him for her missing brother - Lynch senses the opportunity, as well as the danger. Bobbie's brother, Heydon, was a troubled young man. Five years ago, he walked out of the family home and never went back. His car was found parked on a bridge overlooking the Thames, in the early hours of the same morning. Unsettled by Bobbie's story, and suffering from a rare attack of conscience, Lynch tries to back off. But when Bobbie leaves for rehab the following day, he finds himself drawn to her luxurious family home, and into a meeting with her mother, the formidable Miranda.

Transferred from his usual night shift duties and onto protective custody, he has only one job - to extract the location of Martin Wick's final victim before he passes away. Wick has spent a decade in prison, having confessed to an unspeakable crime that shocked the world and made him into a national hate figure. But when an audacious assault leaves one police officer dead and another fighting for his life, Wick's whispered final words will send Aidan on a journey into the heart of darkness. Manipulated by a psychopath, and haunted by terrifying hallucinations, Waits can't even protect those closest to him. Out of friends and out of time, he realises that an unfeeling, unfailing contract killer is at work. And Aidan's name is next on the list.

Isabelle Rossiter has run away again. When the teenage daughter of a prominent MP joins Zain Carver, the enigmatic criminal who Waits is investigating, everything changes. A single mother, missing for a decade. Carver is a mesmerising figure who lures young women into his orbit - young women who have a bad habit of disappearing. Soon Waits is cut loose by the police, stalked by an unseen killer and dangerously attracted to the wrong woman. How can he save the girl, when he can't even save himself?<br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">Author: </span>Knox, Joseph<br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">Published: </span>London : Black Swan, 2018.<br />xi, 416 pages ; 20 cm<br /><br />Beswick Library - (Manchester Libraries) - Adult Fiction - Crime Paperback - Onloan - Due: 20 May 2024 - C0000020084035<br />City Library - (Manchester Libraries) - Adult Fiction - Crime Paperback / City of Literature - Available - C0000020265038<br />City Library - (Manchester Libraries) - Adult Fiction - Crime Paperback - Available - C0000020270853<br />Forum Library Wythenshawe - (Manchester Libraries) - Adult Fiction - Crime Paperback - Onloan - Due: 17 May 2024 - C0000020079717<br />Hulme High St - (Manchester Libraries) - Adult Fiction - CRIME - Crime Paperback - Available - C0000020081882<br />Northenden Outreach Library - (Manchester Libraries) - Adult Fiction - Crime Paperback - Available - C0000020084034<br /> https://manchester.spydus.co.uk/cgi-bin/spydus.exe/ENQ/WPAC/BIBENQ?SETLVL=&BRN=2411064&ISGLB=0 The runaway daughter of a dirty politician.
