Synopsis

The sixth Joe Faraday novel from a writer at 'the forefront of British crime writing' [INDEPENDENT ON SUNDAY]

The discovery of a headless corpse on the rocks below the cliffs on the Isle of Wight is only the beginning of a journey for DI Joe Faraday. It's a journey which takes him right to the heart of the grim trade in human cargo from the crippled societies of the Balkans. From cheap labour to prostitution, Portsmouth, like every other city in the UK is home to untold human misery; a black economy built on illegal immigration. Joe Faraday is determined to find the real criminals that lie behind the tabloid hysteria.

DC Paul Winter on the other hand is determined only to find a way out of the disciplinary action that threatens his entire career. A burgeoning relationship with a young prostitute isn't exactly helping his cause. And for Winter, it's beginning to look as if time is running out...

Media Reviews
No police procedural conveys a more authentic-seeming picture of what modern British policing's really like than Graham Hurley's excellent series . . . another first-rate thriller from a writer who is firmly up there with the best. Sunday Telegraph
One of Britain's most credible official sleuths, crisscrossing the mean streets of a city that is a brilliantly depicted microcosm of contemporary Britain. His investigations are realistic and authoritative, perhaps as a result of Hurley's background in documentary films . . . a sterling demonstration of the way crime writing can target society's woes. Guardian
There is no doubt that his series of police procedural novels is one of the best since the genre was invented more than half a century ago. The Literary Review
