A propos du livre

Quatrième de couverture :

Joe Clayton thought the dangers of his undercover career were behind him. He was wrong. One grey October morning, while working in a quiet Bristol street, he hears the voice of the man who has sworn to destroy him. Minutes later Joe is running for his life again.

Desperate for sanctuary, he heads for the small Cornish town of Trelennan, and the home of Diana Bamber, widow of a former police colleague. But Diana reacts strangely to his arrival, and gradually Joe discovers that Trelennan is far from the idyllic, law-abiding resort it claims to be.

The town is in the grip of one man. Leon Race doesn't welcome strangers, especially ex-cops who start asking questions about missing women. Soon Joe is caught up in another undercover role, but as he penetrates the web of secrets that ensnares the town's elite, his own secret is at risk of discovery. And all the time his old enemy is circling ...

Praise for Tom Bale:

'A gripping thriller' Closer

'Bale keeps us guessing as our heroes edge towards a shocking climax' Guardian

Revue de presse :

"With strong characters, a fast pace and lots of twists and turns, this is a satisfying read, right to the shocking end" (Peterborough Evening Times)

"If you love a gritty UK-based drama then this book is an absolute must read ... It's cleverly constructed, beautifully thought out and with a main character that the reader can't help but associate with, it's a book that really was hard to put down" (Falcata Times)

"[Bale] has neatly captured the claustrophobic feel of a small town. He opens with a bang in Blood Falls, and doesn't let up until the end, which comes at a gallop, with the revelation that ... well, I shouldn't say. Recommended" (Shots)

"An excellent read ... with a surprising twist that is hard to see coming" (Mean Streets)

"A fine page turner of a thriller and features again another Bale characteristic of note: no one draws thugs like this author for his villains are truly dirty, misguided and the sort of people you hope never to meet. More please" (It’s a Crime! (Or a Mystery ...))
