Justice has a price, and she’s about to pay it.
Zoe Callahan’s life is going nowhere. She’s in a dead-end job, her relationship is cracking at the seams – and Glasgow is sweltering under a punishing heatwave.
Then her neighbour – a high-end escort – is assaulted by a rising political star. But when the victim is silenced and the case quietly dropped, Zoe takes matters into her own hands – and sets off a chain of events with devastating consequences.
As she spirals deeper into a world of corruption, violence and political scandal, Zoe turns to criminologist Anna Scavolini for help. But with the truth more dangerous than she ever imagined, it may already be too late.
A gripping and unflinching crime thriller, perfect for fans of Denise Mina, Rachel Abbott and Val McDermid.
