<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"Introducing Detective Jack Warr"--Cover.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>The first book in a brand-new series by the Queen of Crime Drama, Lynda La Plante.</b> <p/> <br> <b><b>An exciting and action packed new thriller, with roots </b></b><b><b>in La Plante's bestselling novels, <i>Widows </i>and <i>Widows' Revenge.</i></b></b> <p/> Jack Warr is a young DC with the Metropolitan Police. Charming but aimless, Jack can't seem to find his place in the world - until he's drawn into an investigation that turns his life upside down. <p/> In the aftermath of a fire at a derelict cottage, a badly charred body is discovered, along with the burnt remnants of millions of stolen, untraceable bank notes - the hidden legacy of Dolly Rawlins and her gang of Widows. <p/> Jack's assignment to the case coincides with an investigation into his own past. As he searches for the truth about his identity, Jack finds himself increasingly drawn into a murky underworld of corruption and crime. Those millions have not been forgotten - and Jack will stop at nothing to find the truth. ­ <p/> <b>'Lynda La Plante practically invented the thriller' Karin Slaughter</b><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Lynda La Plante was born in Liverpool.
