Publisher's Synopsis
Rachel Elsworth is missing. Nineteen years old, she has mysteriously vanished into Manchester's seamy underworld. Her father employs off-beat private eye Dave Cunane - fond of a drink and champion of lost causes - to find her. Rachel's trail leads Dave into the maze of Manchester's criminal fraternity; and gradually turns into a twisted path right to the heart of police corruption. When Dave realises that someone will stop at nothing to find Rachel before he does, he still doesn't quite know how high the stakes are... "This is the kind of stuff English thriller has been begging for" GO
