She enlists the services of John Evans, a criminal investigative journalist and Phil Smith, a surveillance specialist.
But in their pursuit of Campbell, who is always one step ahead of them, DCI Hall encounters her nemesis Gemma Baldwin, the clever and resourceful head of Manchester's drugs underworld. Can Campbell be stopped in time before he conspires with Baldwin to flood the UK with tons of heroin?
As the investigation intensifies one of the officers is placed in mortal danger. Who can save him and at what price?
Find out how this gripping, intense and exciting historical crime thriller twists and turns. Will justice prevail?
