The Soul of Discretion

DCI Simon Serrailler has been asked to go under cover in a prison in the hopes that he can get a paedophile to provide the names of the rest of his group.  Once in the prison, Serrailler would have no contact with his family and friends.  His only way of making contact with his control would be through a special watch he is to wear.

As he learns the stories of his fellow inmates, Serrailler begins to feel dirty.  His own cover story sickens him.  Fortunately it is a story that convinces the mark he is after.  So much so that the mark takes Serrailler with him when he makes a jail break.

Can Serrailler get the information from his mark now that they have escaped?  Will he be trusted or will they be going their separate ways?

The remaining pages of Susan Hill’s thriller are full of suspense and action.  Due to the topic, it is a tough read and must have been a tough job to write.  Intense and mind gripping.
