'John Harvey is one of the all-time greats and remains one of my favourite writers.' IAN RANKIN
As heard on BBC Radio 4 in the Resnick dramatisations, now collected in audiobook for the first time
_____________________
A series of brutal robberies takes Detective Inspector Charlie Resnick back ten years.
To a time when a rash of very similar incidents left him face to face with a frenzied sociopath who nearly brought his life to a premature end - and to a time when his wife ran off with her lover, putting paid to their marriage and leaving him with a psychic wound that still hasn't healed.
Now with the look-alike robberies escalating in violence, Resnick fights to track the men down before they kill, just as he fights to stem the poignant memories that threaten to overwhelm him.
