A bag of severed fingers is found in the playground by a rough housing estate
Police partners, D.I. Calladine and D.S. Ruth Bayliss race against time to track down a killer before the whole area erupts in violence. Their boss thinks it’s all down to drug lord Ray Fallon, but Calladine’s instincts say something far nastier is happening on the Hobfield housing estate.
Can this duo track down the murderer before anyone else dies and before the press publicize the gruesome crimes? Detectives Calladine and Bayliss are led on a trail which gets dangerously close to home. In a thrilling finale they race against time to rescue someone very close to Calladine’s heart.

About the book
Detective Inspector Tom Calladine and Detective Sergeant Ruth Bayliss are called to the scene of a grisly discovery in the local playground at Leesdon, near Manchester, England. A plastic bag with human fingers inside, is only the beginning of a terrible and brutal series of murders by a psychopathic killer who has no empathy for his victims. Calladine and Bayliss are sure that the crime is linked to the Hobfield estate where drug sales and criminals get together for illegal activities.
