DCI Acton and DC Doyle are at the scene of a murder when Acton receives a
call to attend another crime scene. It would appear that they might be
dealing with a gang war. It turns out that the first victim was
Russian and the second victim Irish; the two groups involved in the turf
war. Because Acton is busy with other cases, he put DS Williams in
charge of the cases.
Surprisingly, the pair find a witness with photographs of a leader of
the Russian mafia carrying a gun. Unfortunately it is at this time that
Doyle suffers a miscarriage.
Within a short time, the Russian is in custody. Doyle wonders if they
have the right culprit, so she checks the crime scene again with
Williams. Later that evening, her priest visits her and Acton,
wondering if Doyle is being poisoned.
Why would the Russian mafia leader be attacked in jail and why would he refuse to identify the man who attacked him?
Author Anne Cleeland has more death and mayhem in store for the reader in this murder mystery. A good read.
