What if the killer she's hunting turns out to be the woman she's falling for?
'Tense, chilling and distinctive, this is a one-sitting read' Guardian
'A bloody good read' Val McDermid
----
Just because the most dangerous criminals in society are caught and locked up, doesn’t mean they stop committing crime.
That’s where Kennedy Allardyce comes in – working in one of Scotland’s toughest prisons, monitoring not just the prisoners, but also the staff.
And she’s just stumbled across her most dangerous foe yet – rumours of a corrupt guard, nicknamed Scout, with lethal influence. And what’s worst, it seems they’ve already realised Kennedy is on their tail.
Despite her growing fear, there is one thing going right for Kennedy. The enigmatic new prison officer Molly is beautiful and ready to sweep her off her feet.
But Kennedy can’t afford to let her guard down. Because with Scout hiding very close by, her next mistake might just be her last . . .

'A significant crime debut. Authoritatively authentic, irresistibly pacey and nerve-shreddingly tense' Chris Brookmyre
‘An assured debut by former prison officer, taking us inside the claustrophobic and ofttimes gladiatorial setting of a modern prison. With the dodgy guards and vicious cons, this is a topical dive into the darker aspects of our penal system. Terrifyingly authentic’ Vaseem Khan
‘Raw, brutal, claustrophobic, fast and impossible to put down. Written by someone who's walked the walk and seen the prison system close up’ Neil Lancaster, bestselling author of Dead Man’s Grave
‘Grabs you by the throat and doesn’t let go’ Professor David Wilson, leading criminologist and author of My Life with Murderers
‘Brilliantly plotted, and so tense I forgot to breathe in places’ Lisa Hall, author of Between You and Me
‘Gritty and unflinching, unbearably tense and claustrophobic, it gripped me throughout. Claire’s professional expertise shines through and gives such authenticity to the story’ Natalie Chandler, author of What We Did

We are UK-based collectors of ultra-modern (almost exclusively post-2000) signed first editions, now down-sizing our collection and giving others the opportunity to enjoy the special books that have provided us with so much enjoyment and satisfaction over the years. We are offering an eclectic mix of books for sale, with large numbers of signed UK first editions in categories including crime, historical fiction, science fiction and thrillers. We are also offering many limited / special editions, including numbered editions. For many authors, we are able to offer single listings comprising sets or series of multiple books. We aim to provide maximum customer satisfaction and to treat you as we would wish to be treated ourselves. With that in mind, we will provide accurate descriptions with photos (and additional photos on request), rapid despatch (almost always within 24 hrs of the receipt of your order) and safe and secure mailing (using proper book wraps / boxes and - for books sold for more than £50 only using despatch methods that are fully tracked, insured and will require a signature on delivery). Postage costs are included in our prices for UK customers. For overseas customers, we have set a standard Abe postal rate, but will communicate direct with customers and charge the actual cost of postage and packing by tracked and insured delivery methods requiring signature.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.

Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
