    Each was armed with a 9mm Beretta automatic pistol, yet there are no signs of a struggle. As the police investigation gets into full swing, Detective Inspector Nevin Brown of the Royal Ulster Constabulary steps into the frame. Recently arrived in London on a six-month attachment to the Metropolitan police, Nevin’s natural flair for analysis and his years of experience in the field in Northern Ireland come to the attention of his superiors. He is charged with the task of heading up his own enquiry into the double murder. Nevin’s investigation soon leads him to Countess Natasha Romanov, a cruel and glamorous cultural Russian cultural attaché, and Ivan Dragenoff, her physically imposing bodyguard and manservant. Nevin is convinced of the countess’ guilt, but her meticulous nature has ensured that, other than one eyewitness, he has no hard evidence to back up his claims. Yet when his only witness to the crime is found at the bottom of a flight of stairs with her neck broken, Nevin also realises that something is rotten in the Metropolitan Police. Only a select few police officers knew the whereabouts and identity of the witness, and now she has been murdered. To make matters worse, MI5 have received intelligence that Nevin’s nemesis, a vicious IRA assassin by the name of Anthony Kane, has arrived in London and is preparing to carry out one last assassination that could have drastic consequences for the Northern Ireland peace process. Before long, Nevin is drawn into an intricate web of loyalty and treachery. A plot involving the Russian mafia, Colombian drug cartels and the Provisional IRA begins to unravel, leading to an exhilarating climax that will jeopardise his own life, the lives of the ones he loves and his unerring commitment to justice.
