Jack's back. Down Under.
The heart-stopping new DCI Jack Hawksworth crime thriller by the bestselling author of Mirror Man.

MILLION COPY BESTSELLING AUTHOR


Newly promoted Detective Superintendent Jack Hawksworth has headed up three major serial operations in England and in each of these cases he has lost a part of himself. While on sabbatical as guest lecturer in a London university, one of his female students dies under highly suspicious circumstances, and he finds himself drawn into a chilling new case that reaches across the world.
Jack’s investigations lead him to Adelaide where he identifies a cynical international crime consortium that preys on the anguish of childless couples and vulnerable women. Together with local major crime officers, he follows his leads to the windswept Yorke Peninsula, and becomes caught up in an intoxicating private drama.

With his personal and professional business entangled once again, Jack must put his own life on the line to bring justice to those who are grieving.

From the bestselling author of Mirror Man comes a heart-stopping new novel of greed and corruption that questions the price people are willing to pay for a human life.
