From the Publisher:
Truth Dare KILL - Gordon Ferris
The war's over. But no medals for Danny McRae. Just amnesia and blackouts;
twin handicaps for a private investigator with an upper-class client on the
hook for murder.
It gets harder: newspaper headlines about a Soho psychopath stir grisly
memories in Danny's fractured mind. As the two bloody sagas collide and
interweave, Danny finds himself running for his life across the
bomb-ravaged city.
Will his past catch up with him before his enemies? And which would be
worse?
Fast-paced post-war noir, with grimly accurate London setting.
