Synopsis

The brilliant debut novella from celebrated British actor Robert Daws

DS Tamara Sullivan is a British Police officer fighting to save her career. Exiled to Gibraltar from London's Metropolitan Police after a lapse of judgement, Sullivan feels she's being punished – no matter how sun-kissed the Rock is.  

But this is no sleepy siesta of a posting on the Mediterranean. Paired with her new boss, DCI Gus Broderick, Sullivan will need all her skills to survive the most dangerous case of her career.

A young constable is found hanging in his apartment. With no time for introductions, Sullivan and Broderick, unravel a dark and sinister secret that has remained buried for decades. 

Are they prepared to face the fury of what they are about to uncover?

The Rock is a riveting crime thriller packed with twists.
