Cathal Breen has been at the Tozer farm for a week now, recovering from a
gunshot wound he had received in the line of duty. He is bored; the
country isn’t London. His friend, Helen Tozer, asks the local police
sergeant to allow Breen to access the files of her sister’s murder.
Breen becomes very interested when he discovers that the file of one
suspect is missing. He is informed that the suspect had a verified
alibi. He had been with a policeman at the time of the killing. Breen
decides to return to London to speak to the policeman who now works
there for the Drug Squad. The problem is that he has gone missing!
The missing cop is found, tortured in the same manner that Helen’s
sister was. Who is responsible? Could Helen possibly be the one?
Although Breen is on sick leave, he continues the investigation on his
own. What author William Shaw has in store for the investigation is
terrifying. With a story line that has a background in fact, Shaw’s
thriller is an intense read, which was hard to put down.
