Clean records. Deadly secrets.

In a world built on trust, the most dangerous crimes are hidden in plain sight. And this one is far worse than anyone imagined.

Ex-DCI Luke Sackville and his Ethics Team investigate three cases that appear to be routine and unrelated: a police officer abusing his position; financial irregularities at a pharmaceutical company; a vehicle manufacturer using substandard components.

What Luke doesn’t expect is a trail of lies and intimidation. He finds records that look too clean, witnesses who suddenly fall silent, and leads that come back to the same powerful names.

As he digs deeper, he begins to join the dots and is shocked and horrified by what he discovers. A crime of unimaginable proportions is being conducted behind a respectable facade.

Luke draws closer to the perpetrators, little realising that they will do anything to protect themselves. He and his team find themselves pitted against a network of powerful people who are prepared to kill to keep their secret hidden.

Sharp Practice is the twelfth book in the series of crime thrillers featuring ex-DCI Luke Sackville and his Ethics Team. It’s perfect for fans of JD Kirk, LJ Ross, Jack Gatland, Alex Smith, TG Reid and JM Dalgliesh.
