Publisher's Synopsis
The Cumbria Major Crimes team is under immense pressure to get results. DCI Harry Evans and his subordinates, DS Neil Chisholm, DC Lauren Phillips, and DC Amir Bhaki must juggle cases while tragedy stalks them. Up in Glasgow, DI John Campbell is preparing to replace Evans, whose renegade ways have brought forced retirement. Together they must investigate a man killed in his own home, a vigilante group chasing a suspected pedophile, a river dammed for no obvious reason, and a woman whose cries of "wolf" turn to "rape." Meanwhile DC Phillips goes undercover off the books.
