About this audiobook
The No.1 bestseller returns with a nail-biting new PC Phil McCarthy book. If you loved When You Are Mine or are hunting for thrillers that make you think and feel, you won't want to miss this.
As a police officer and the daughter of a London crime boss, Philomena McCarthy's loyalties are torn between two worlds.
When she discovers a child wandering the streets during a night-time patrol, she's catapulted into the scene of a home invasion. Meanwhile, across London a jeweller is found strapped to an explosive in his ransacked store.
As it becomes clear the crimes are linked, suspicion falls on Phil's own father. With her lives colliding, Phil's career and family face the ultimate threat.
But who can she trust - the badge, or her own blood?
'Another tour de force from Michael Robotham. He is so good at humanising his characters - even the nasty ones' LINWOOD BARCLAY
'Everyone is so beautifully drawn - you tear through the pages hoping they can be trusted' LAINIE ANDERSON
'Grips like a vice and twists like a rollercoaster. Impossibly clever. Impossible to put down!' ***** READER REVIEW
