Description

After a deadly shooting outside a Premier League match, 50,000 witnesses give conflicting accounts. DCI Jack Parker’s brother disappears, while Jack’s early-onset dementia makes him doubt his own memory. The gritty fourth Newcastle-set police procedural in Trevor Wood’s DCI Jack Parker series…

––––––––––––––

JACK PARKER IS BACK…

A Premier League match in Newcastle ends in gunfire. One man is dead, another in a coma; the killer vanished into the huge fleeing crowd. Every witness has a different story to tell. Jack was at the match with his brother Phillip, who believes he saw the gunman, but now Phillip has disappeared.

50,000 WITNESSES, 50,000 SUSPECTS, NO ANSWERS…

The two victims have nothing in common. One is connected to organised crime, the other a seemingly innocent bystander. But it’s clear that both men had their enemies, which begs more questions.

Which one was the target? How did the shooter avoid all the CCTV? Where is the missing bullet? What happened to the medic who was first on the scene?

THE CRACKS ARE SHOWING

With a killer on the loose and pressure mounting from both his bosses and the press, he needs his team to stick together – but DS Emma Steel is carrying a secret that could tear them apart.

As the signs of his early onset dementia become clearer Jack knows he can’t hide it much longer. Desperate circumstances require desperate measures, and he gambles everything on one last throw of the dice.

Jack is running out of time – and losing the one thing he needs to catch a killer: his memory.
