Publisher Description
Gayla's only hope is about to turn into her worst nightmare
Tricked into coming to Ireland with the offer of a good job, all Gayla wants to do now is run. As far and as fast as she can. Because her captors are close behind her, and they want her dead - no matter what.
Two people are hunting her...
Crime lord Arturus Strazdas has never had a woman he hasn't paid for and never had a friend who wasn't afraid of him. Now his brother is dead, and he's determined to find - and destroy - the woman responsible.
...And neither one will rest till she is dead
On the other side of the city, Detective Inspector Lennon wants a quiet Christmas with his six year old daughter. But as the bodies start to mount up, he finds himself in a desperate race to save a woman's life, and track down two very dangerous killers.
Stuart Neville's breakneck new thriller
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
At the start of Neville's accomplished third thriller featuring Belfast Det. Insp. Jack Lennon (after Collusion), Galya Petrova, a 19-year-old Ukrainian girl, kills Tomas Strazdas, brother of notorious Lithuanian crime boss Arturas Strazdas, in self-defense. When Tomas's body turns up near the harbor with that of a wounded harbor cop, it's just the beginning of the carnage. Bent on revenge, Arturas instructs his men to find and kill Galya. The action shifts between Jack's investigation into Tomas's murder and the frantic flight of Galya, who had been sold into prostitution by the Strazdas brothers' front company that allegedly employs immigrant laborers. Jack also gets on the trail of the hit men under Arturas's command, who are cutting a bloody swath across the city, as well as the dirty cops in his own department. When Galya's would-be rescuer turns out to be a greater threat than the Lithuanian thugs, Neville slowly ratchets up the tension and the violence until each page practically twangs with suspense.
