Yet video cameras are everywhere these days. Who was the man filmed with Teddy as he left the Heathrow concourse? And could he kill again?
Ex-copper turned private investigator Billy Rucker joins the case on the exhortation of Teddy’s brother, a well-known Tory MP. And for Rucker it’s the start of a long, lonely trail through the city, clutching a grainy black and white photograph and a gut-gnawing suspicion lurking at the pit of his stomach.
Until a phone call in the night asks for a meeting . . . and suddenly the name of the game is fear . . .
