Two cops dead, and a witness who won’t talk...
Sam Williams has a knack for getting to the truth. So when two cops are shot dead on a deserted back road and the only witness won’t talk, an old friend calls in a favour.
Repaying it might cost Sam more than he bargained for...

"In Dead North, Hames’ lawyer turned accidental sleuth, Sam Williams, finds himself far from home and neck deep in Manchester’s seamy gangster scene.
