Sinopsis

When a mass grave is unearthed, it turns a detective’s life upside down forever . . . in this “gritty, gripping, fresh and authentic” thriller (Meg Gardiner, Edgar Award–winning author of UNSUB). Twenty-seven bodies, vacuum-packed, buried in a woodland trench. Some have been there for years, some for just days. When DI Brendan Foley recognises one of them, he knows this case is about to shake his world. Foley has vital support in Det. Sgt. Iona Madison, a keen boxer outside work. But their loyalties are about to be tested to the extreme. Pressure mounts as the discovery of the mass grave becomes the focus of media attention. Foley knows they can’t crack this case alone; however, he’s not letting a rival force take over. Their investigation lead the two detectives into the murky underworlds of Manchester and Liverpool. But as Madison steps into the ring for the fight of her life, the criminals come to them. It’s no coincidence that the corpses have been buried in Foley’s hometown. The question is, why?

    When the Spokane Police Anti-Crime Team (ACT) was formed, the expectation was that its efforts would make a dent in the city's rising crime rate. In only its first few weeks of existence, the team has done even better than hoped for, racking up arrests and seizures of guns, drugs, money, and stolen cars. Everyone from the mayor to the citizenry seems happy with ACT's swift results. But there are darker agendas surrounding this team. Bonds of loyalty are being forged, secret schemes made, and suspicions are focused in all directions. In the midst of run-and-gun police work, officers will discover that not everything is as it seems. Who to trust becomes a life and death question for everyone involved. In this third installment of the Officer Tyler Garrett saga, the stakes have risen even higher. Garrett seeks to solidify his position. Officer Gary Stone undergoes a surprising metamorphosis. Captain Farrell tries to bring the situation to a head. Rookie Jun Yang struggles to find her place, while Officer Ray Zielinski must repay a debt that threatens to land him in greater danger. Meanwhile, Detective Wardell Clint continues to gnaw at the bone of the case that has consumed him for almost two years. Something has got to give.
