Two crimes, two tangles of emotions and thwarted love...From the author of BEYOND REACH. A man is chained inside a tunnel and then dismembered and scattered along the tracks by the early morning train from Portsmouth to London.

Checking the list of missing persons as the police attempt to identify the body DC Winter comes across a missing man, someone who stepped out of his ordered life with no hint of leaving. He's not the man in the tunnel, he's simply disappeared. The only person he can find who knew him works in the city morgue...

Another first rate thriller from a writer who is firmly up there with the best--SUNDAY TELEGRAPH
[Faraday] is cementing his reputation as one of Britain's most credible official sleuths, criss-crossing the mean streets of a city that is a brilliantly depicted microcosm of contemporary Britain...a sterling demonstration of the way crime writing can target society's woes--GUARDIAN
This is how a crime novel should be written, and it pushes Hurley right to the forefront of British crime writers, which is where he richly deserves to be--INDEPENDENT ON SUNDAY
