Product Description

A rainy night in south London. A gun is fired into a car which swerves on to the pavement, killing the person standing at a bus stop. It seems that a chilling gang initiation has cost an innocent victim their life. But the reality is far more sinister... One life is wiped out & three more are changed forever: the young man whose finger was on the trigger; an ageing gangster planning a deadly revenge, & the pregnant woman who struggles desperately to uncover the truth. Two weeks away from giving birth, how will she deal with a world where death is an occupational hazard? In a city where violence can be random or meticulously planned, where teenage gangs clash with career criminals & where loyalty is paid for in blood, anything is possible. Secrets are uncovered as fast as bodies, & the story's final twist is as breathtakingly surprising as they come. Mark Billingham's first standalone thriller is his most powerful novel yet. Gritty, fierce & moving, it is a must-read for anyone who likes their crime fiction unflinching...and unforgettable.
