‘A turbo-charged nine-darter of a thriller’ (Caroline England)
When private investigator Rockburn discovers an abandoned child at a bus stop, he’s drawn into a world of people traffickers.
A truncated phone call from a distressed woman takes Rockburn to central Manchester. His first case after months of waiting. He discovers a young boy, but before he can ask questions, the two of them are being chased . . .
Being a detective had been easy for him – regular wages, backup, forensic help, intelligence databases. Being a PI is far harder, but he has no choice. He has to make it work, not only for himself, but for the boy.
The first in a new series from the author of The Trail.
