Three years have passed, and two unsolved double murders in London still weigh heavily on the mind of Detective Chief Inspector Jack Edgerton. A serial killer continues to stalk the streets undetected. Will the killer strike again?

Jack Edgerton, a member of the original investigation, has moved on, now serving as the head of Scotland Yard’s elite murder investigation team. Yet the murders remain unsolved.

 

London remains a vibrant 24/7 city. In November 2011 the media are thriving, while political factions battle for power as a public inquiry threatens to destabilise the Labour government. Allegations of corruption reach to the very heart of government, creating a dangerous situation and a web of lies and deceit that begins to unravel where a red light shines.

 

When a new series of murders is committed in the affluent suburbs, fears reignite among local residents. The killings have started again — but why should the world of politics concern Jack Edgerton?

 

There is no refuge for anyone implicated in this deadly game. Jack Edgerton faces his sternest test yet.
