Respected Manchester GP Dr Don Halliwell is discovered brutally murdered one cloudy Autumn morning. Shot dead on the front door of his own practice, his shirt soaked in blood.
Then his colleague Dr Fraser McKee goes missing. McKee’s car is found at his home, violently smashed up. There’s blood inside.
That night McKee walks into the police station. ‘Somebody’s trying to kill me.’
But just as Detective Janine Lewis is following McKee’s trail, shocking new information comes to light. McKee and Halliwell had been seen screaming at each other, that very evening before Halliwell’s murder.
Is McKee really in danger, or is he trying to cover his tracks?
As the case continues, it becomes clear that there’s much more to both McKee and the late Halliwell than meets the eye. They both had more than one enemy, bloodthirsty for revenge.
It’s up to Janine to separate the murky truth from the lies — will she be able to find the killer before it’s too late . . . ?
Discover the books behind the hit ITV detective drama, starring Caroline Quentin.

THE DETECTIVE
Juggling her chaotic home life with her career is all in a day’s work for single, pregnant mum-of-three Janine Lewis. But nothing could prepare her for the day she was promoted to detective chief inspector. She came home to find her husband in bed with the cleaner. His betrayal still stings and though she hides it well, her friends can’t fail to notice. But self-pity isn’t Janine’s style. Witty and earthy, she’s a first-class detective, bringing empathy and insight to every case she works. She may be broken, but she’s anything but beaten.
THE SETTING
Synonymous with music and football, Manchester is a vibrant northern city of striking extremes. Leafy suburbs and gritty urban estates. Towering skyscrapers and seedy canals. Its people are an inspiration, characterized by their humour, warmth and resilience. They are shaped by the city and in turn shape it.
