Two teenage girls are victims of a bloody Valentine's Day shooting; one survives, the other is less fortunate...
It's one of a rising number of violent incidents in the city, and DI Charlie Resnick, nearing retirement, is hauled back to the front line to help deal with the fallout. But when the dead girl's father seeks to lay the blame on DI Lynn Kellogg, Resnick's colleague and lover, the line between personal and professional becomes dangerously blurred.
As Lynn, shaken by this very public accusation, is forced to question her part in the teenager's death, Resnick struggles against those in the force who disapprove of his maverick ways. But when the unimaginable occurs, an emotional Resnick will need all his strength to see justice done.

Excellent as usual. John Harvey is a great crime writer and this is one of his best.
Having read several of Harvey's Resnick series I've had mixed thoughts about him. On the one hand he writes some excellent plots with good diversionary tactics and more often than not some interesting plot... More
The characters - DI Resnick and DI Kellogg and others - rather than the plot kept me entertained for part 1 but with part 2 the story really kicked in and was more gripping.
Hope there's another DI Resnick story...
