DETECTIVE INSPECTOR ANDY HORTON IS BACK IN THIS BRAND-NEW CRIME THRILLER, SET ON THE SOUTH COAST OF ENGLAND. OVER 200,000 BOOKS SOLD!
Meet DI Andy Horton. He's a risk-taking Harley-Davidson-riding detective who doesn't always play by the rules . . . which often lands him in trouble with his bosses.
A missing person. A burned body. An old flame.
Detective Inspector Andy Horton arrives at Portsmouth CID to find a stinky, old metal box on his desk. It was found in the mud at Sinah Lake and contains a collection of rare and valuable gold and silver coins from the Carolean era and Queen Victoria's reign.
But why are there handcuffs attached to the box? Or more importantly, who was originally attached to it?
Soon after, Horton is called out to an isolated stretch of Gosport shore where a body has been found in a burned-out car. But the vehicle and body are so badly charred that it's almost impossible to identify the victim.
Then Horton is dealt a double blow when Europol agent Harriet Ames drops a bombshell: she's been transferred to a local team and they're going to be seeing a lot more of each other.
Horton can't let Harriet distract him. Not now. Especially when another body has just been discovered . . .
An absolutely gripping detective mystery perfect for fans of Ann Cleeves, Joy Ellis, Rachel McLean, Helen H. Durrant, Angela Marsons, Elly Griffiths, Karin Slaughter, Matt Brolly and Simon McCleave.
