DARK DEALINGS IN THE BOARDROOM AND ON THE STREETS

Eileen O’Hara isn’t used to hearing ‘no’. She’s the stunning chairman of Broadlands construction. But now she is facing a management takeover, with rivals bidding for control of her company.

BOTH ARE CROOKED WITH OLD SCORES TO SETTLE. WHO WILL SHE CHOOSE?

She calls on lawyer and financier Eric Ward for advice. Eric’s head is turned, much to his wife’s chagrin.
His conscience tells him he can’t walk away — whatever the implications for his marriage. Aided by Anne, he begins digging into the murky pasts of both bidders.

They expected to uncover corruption — BUT NEVER MURDER.

In the fight for control of Broadlands, these men will stop at nothing. And Eric is becoming ever more entangled in their lethal web of lies.

THEY’VE ALREADY KILLED ONCE. Could Eric or Anne be next?

Eric finds his separate roles intertwining. Can he expose the dark side of London’s financial heart in time to save his marriage?

A GRIPPING, WELL-CRAFTED MYSTERY THAT WILL HAVE YOU COMPLETELY ABSORBED

Perfect for fans of Peter James, Ruth Rendell, P.D. James and Peter Robinson.
