⚠️ CW: murder, sex trafficking, paedophilia and mentions of rape ⚠️ Carol has done it again and given us another incredible page turning crime thriller! This book is the fourth installment in the DI Kate Young series and follows Kate as she finally confronts her boss, Superintendent John Dickson, who she has known for years is a violent and evil man but their encounter ends in an accidental shooting which she is forced to cover up before anyone can pin it on her. With new revelations about the dark disease of corruption taking place in the police force Kate sets up a trail of evidence to make it seem that Dickson has conveniently vanished. But she knows the corruption doesn't end with him, and as she heads up the team investigating his disappearance she must also pursue other loose ends. Yet as the noose tightens around Kate she finds herself targeted by traffickers, more corrupt cops and even her own team as she battles to stay one step ahead and hopes she can get some justice while also getting away with murder. This book was so amazing and I binged it in two sittings because I just couldn't put it down! I was absolutely hooked from the start from the untrustworthy, morally grey characters to the immense plot that just kept me guessing until the very end when it left me in awe and desperately needing the next book immediately. Overall, I cannot recommend this book highly enough and if you love thrilling crime fictions then you'll adore this series!
