Detective Inspector Frank Kavanagh and his
lover, Detective Constable Jane Salt have been split up. He is
on secondment to the National Serious Crimes Division, which is
looking into the deaths of prostitutes in the West Midlands.
They have a sameness about them which suggests a serial killer
is at work. DC Salt is investigating a series of violent cash
heists against unusual targets, the first of which is a garden
centre.Their boss, ACC Michael Hyland a clever, but unlikeable
man is trying to cover the tracks to his shady past, which could
not only end his career but lead to imprisonment. A very
well-written book. What impressed me is that the author is not
afraid to leave loose ends. Life is like that. Not everything is
tidy. Well worth reading.
