The second Newcastle-set police thriller with a twist. DCI Jack Parker fights to hide his Early Onset Dementia while he continues to do the job he loves - investigating crimes and bringing villains to justice.
Still haunted by the death of a colleague in a hit and run for which he blames himself, he pursues the case with a determination bordering on reckless, encouraging her replacement, DS Emma Steel, to get close to a local gangster who knows more than he's letting on, thus endangering her and causing dissent among his close-knit team.
