-The fourth extract from the casefiles of D.I. Hawes & D.S. Gray-

Edmund is working on borrowed time. Six days since his boss took her 'holiday' from the police force, he's no closer than he ever was to finding out where or why she left, or any closer to the mysterious key his friend Cammie allegedly keeps hidden.

Hawes, too, is living on a knife-edge. Her past has caught up with her, and she's been forced to duck into hiding. By this point, she's begun to play the game she always knew she'd have to - the prize being her own life, and that of many others.
