London is steaming under a summer of filthy heat and sudden storms – and Detective Nick Belsey, of Hampstead CID, is trying to stay out of trouble.

But then somebody sets him a riddle. How does a man walk into a dead-end alley and never come out? How does he disappear?

And then reappear – to snatch a girl, to dump a body beneath a London skyscraper, to send Belsey a package of human hair.

The answer lies underground, where the secrets degenerating beneath the city’s sickly glitter are about to see the light of day.

Review:

"A pitch-perfect portrait of contemporary London and a beguiling bastard of a hero" (Val McDermid)

"Makes the capital as eerie as Le Carr�’s Berlin" (Evening Standard)

"Relentless...explosive" (Mail on Sunday)

"Want a readable yet beautifully crafted thriller with original characterisation, fabulous plot and superb pacing? Tick, tick, tick. Deep Shelter will keep you guessing and turning pages right the way through." (Ham & High)

"Heaven, I'm in heaven... in fact, I'm in Hampstead, where Detective Nick Belsey is based, and he's the coolest cop you'll have come across in ages. London through his eyes is as atmospheric as a drawing by Gustave Dor�... This demands to be read before the television adaptation." (Kate Saunders Saga Magazine)

Book Description:

A killer is about to lead you underground - from the man who 'makes London as eerie as Le Carre's Berlin or Larsson's Stockholm'.
