Anyone can find themselves in the wrong place, at the wrong time.

From the best-selling author of Hide and Seek, comes a gripping crime thriller introducing the characters of DS Ripley and DC Coffey.

Three brothers are carrying out their own form of vigilante justice by executing criminals who have escaped prosecution on technicalities. They have managed to keep their actions hidden until an innocent man finds himself an onlooker to their latest killing.

As the witness struggles to decide who he can trust and where he can turn, Ripley and Coffey may be his only hope, as their investigation of a standard missing person case uncovers a far more sinister story.

As the paths of criminal, vigilante and the police collide, the conspiracy unravels to a shocking conclusion with utterly tragic consequences.
