Following the suspicious death of notorious underworld gangster, Lee Royle, his widow Jo and Eddie - the rival gangster Jo has been having an affair with - try to solve the murder. It happened at a place where three roads meet.
Junction 1A of the M25. There's a killer on the road. Lee Royle, the notorious 'King of Kent', is dead, killed in a brutal act of road rage. But was this a random attack, or was it a premeditated move in a deadly game of betrayal and revenge? Three lives are set on a collision course: Jo Royle, Lee's disillusioned and embittered wife, hiding secrets that could kill; Eddie Pierce, Jo's ambitious new lover, determined to move up the criminal ranks; and Commander Ray Spinks, a corrupt cop with his own claim on Lee's legacy -and no intention of letting it slip through his fingers. Caught between lust and loyalty, ambition and guilt, each will risk everything to uncover or bury the explosive truth behind Lee's death. Because this wasn't just a murder. It was a reckoning. Blood Rival is a modern retelling of an ancient story, where Greek tragedy meets neo-noir. A compulsive psychological thriller of forbidden desire, family secrets and fatal ambition.
