Publisher's Synopsis
No one expects to read their own obituary. The terse notice of his death is out of place amid the hustle and bustle of Harry's new office on the Liverpool waterfront - someone wants him dead and he has only seven days to find out who. Liverpool becomes a capital of crime as well as culture when a mutilated female corpse is found on the beach at Waterloo, followed by another in similar circumstances. Harry must race against the clock to find the murderer before he faces his own Waterloo sunset.
