Worryingly for Scotland Yard, four officers disappear whilst on duty.
One vanishes chasing a forger. Then two officers disappear searching for a wanted jewel thief in Hythe. Finally, a fourth officer vanishes in Hythe, after being sent to the nearby village of Stonehurst.
Criminologist Trevor Lowe investigates a lead: someone has telephoned to arrange a meeting at the crossroads between the two villages. Lowe keeps the rendezvous but finds the man has been silenced - shot dead in a ditch . . .
This twisty, edge-of-the-seat thriller will see the strong arm of London's police force picked off one by one in a whodunit that unravels with all the pace and intrigue of Line of Duty.
