In the fourth in the series, Kate Brannigan stuns us again with her deductive powers! When a precious impressionist Monet painting is nicked from a posh British estate where the tough-talking PI arranged the security, she is right on the job to get it back. For Kate, whose sources extend from Manchester's seedy crime world to its elite online computer hackers, finding the thief is a cinch. But staying out of harm's way as she chases after stolen art is anything but. In the meantime, Kate is also hired by the Kerrchern company to track down an industrial saboteur who is dosing its top-selling cleanser with cyanide. As the dead keep dropping, Kate's professional reputation is on the line and so is her long-term romance. But she refuses to give up and insists on doing things her way, no matter what.

Literary Review

‘Fast, fluently told story: Kate is as tough as Warshawski but less hung up on political correctness’
Daily Mail

‘Kate Brannigan is wonderful’
Frances Fyfield
