EX-COP Ash Henderson has been sprung from prison legally by his fellow cops to help catch a brutal slayer of women nicknamed the Inside Man – a killer who had given Ash the slip eight years previously.

A savage beating in prison before Ash’s release sets the brutal and bloody tone for this crime thriller, which only gets bloodier as it proceeds. So much blood is spilled, in fact, that you feel you need a transfusion before the book ends.
