"A gripping read" - The Evening Gazette



Would you ever cross the line?

Two law students at Teesside University didn't think so, until one night their flatmate is involved in a violent incident. They make a fateful decision to help him, but in doing so they compromise everything they once held sacred, and embroil themselves in the world of Jamaican Yardies.

Detective Inspector Harry Davis suspects that the Yardies are taking over the drug trade in Middlesbrough, and his instincts tell him that the students are involved. Can they lead Davis to the gang boss? Or will danger catch them all before the mystery can be uncovered?

As the web of deceit tightens, the students must ask themselves: how well do they really know their flatmates? A gripping thriller full of twists and turns, for fans of Christopher Nicole and Ian Rankin.
