DI Jack Brady, and DS Harry Conrad have been called out to Whitley Bay
beach where the body of a young woman has been found. The question is,
how will they find her because the head is missing as are her fingers.
A mark that appears to be a brand is located at the base of her spine.
Brady phones his ex-wife with the information. Does he have a sex
trafficking crime on his hands?
Back at the station, Brady is informed that last night, the woman he'd
had an affair with, DC Simone Henderson had been badly cut up, including
having her tongue cut out. DCI Gates expects Brady to stick with his
own investigation while DI Adamson takes charge of the investigation
into the attack on Henderson. Brady is sure that Adamson will screw up
the investigation. Brady knows that his job would be on the line if he
interfered, yet he is sure that the two cases are connected.
Brady soon comes to the realisation that he is in the middle of a deadly
turf war amongst criminal elements, and his younger brother, Nick is
involved. Then, to make matters worse, someone leaves the victim's head
in his car. Shortly after this, the victim is identified. The
severity of the crime is brought to light for Brady's team when his
ex-wife, Claudia, tells them that it is also a perverse sex crime.
Claudia also tells the team that they are up against a pair of
Lithuanian brothers who are running a sex trafficking racket. They are
violent and kill without hesitation.
The case gets screwed up even further when the pathologist tells Brady
that he had made a mistake. The identity of the victim is not who they
thought it was. As a result a sixteen year old girl is still missing!
Will Brady screw up more and lose his career or can he salvage
something out of this mess.
Author Danielle Ramsay provides the reader with a fast paced action
thriller, which keeps the reader engrossed and involved. This is a book
that is hard to put down.
