Publisher's Synopsis
In a pernicious twist of fate, Detective Chief Inspector Stewart White is automatically suspended from duty when his DNA is discovered at the scene of a bank robbery in the fourth installment of the D.I. White Mysteries.
White suspects that the DNA was planted by one of the many criminals he helped put away during his career, but his suspension makes investigation impossible--until three of his colleagues cash in some vacation time to do the legwork that White can no longer do himself.
While White's covert investigation focuses on tying together a string of seemingly unconnected robberies, an eastern Mediterranean crime boss, Sadik El Safari, is taking full advantage of the distraction to expand his refugee smuggling and drug operations into the UK--with the help of his beautiful and ruthlessly ambitious lieutenant, Fizzah Hammad.
Can White and his team trace it all back in time to stop Fizzah before her true plans are implemented?
