About this listen

When Julian Schaeffer is shot in front of his son in a London park, suspicion falls on his estranged wife. The woman has a seemingly watertight alibi, but Carlyle - trying to make the best of a difficult relationship with his new sergeant, Umar Sligo - won't stop digging.

Focused on the Schaeffer case, the inspector is not too interested when Daniel Sands is hauled in to Charing Cross, accused of kidnapping. Then he discovers Sands' back-story and finds himself propelled forward in a quest for justice for two fathers and their destroyed families.

Critic reviews

"A cracking read." (BBC Radio 4)

No, not too many moving parrs but do not let your attention wander. I like the many crimes piling into Charing Cross police station. Threads are picked up, dropped, reappear later and I wondered sometimes if crimes could be solved. They could. I find the reading challenging because I could not immediately recognize bad guys just by name. Reading some books does have the advantage of burning names into memory, something listening just doesn't do well. I did like this book very much.
