About this listen

A tense, gritty and atmospheric read from bestselling author Alex Coombs

DCI Hanlon is going undercover.

Oxford Philosophy lecturer Dr Gideon Fuller is in the frame, but Hanlon is not convinced.

From the specialist brothels in Oxford and Soho, to the inner sanctum of a Russian people trafficker with a taste for hurting women, the trail leads Hanlon deeper and deeper into danger – until she herself becomes the killer's next target...

Can Hanlon track down the killer before it's too late?

A thrilling new case for DCI Hanlon. Perfect for fans of Angela Marsons, Lisa Regan and Mark Dawson.

This book was previously published as *Cold Revenge by Alex Howard.*

Even when the odds are against her she even relishes being hit. But as she gets closer to finding the answers she herself gets into grave danger, when faced with danger she will not go down quietly….

brilliant read

As already mentioned definitley better than the first but still some plot issues that done really make too much sense. Won't go into too much detail so as not to spoil, the ending seemed a bit unnecessary but otherwise still worth a read.

A definite improvement on the first.

I’m finding the Halon books quite addictive always interesting story line. Can’t say I’m a fan of some of the narrators. But plots are good overstretched maybe but still very good
