Did I read this in a day? Yes, yes I did!... It was fantastic. Literally could not put it down... Fast-paced, brilliant characters... Completely loved it... M.J. Arlidge is a genius.' Reader Review, ?????

Nowhere to hide. No one to turn to. Nothing to lose.

Helen Grace is sure she made the right decision quitting her job as a detective. Until the day she looks out of her window to see a desperate young woman being pursued by two vicious thugs.

Still a force to be reckoned with, Helen races into the night, swiftly downing the young woman's attackers. For a moment, it feels like Helen doesn't need her badge to do good, but as she leads her charge to safety, she's struck from behind, regaining consciousness just in time to see the terrified woman being driven off in a white van.

Helen's determined to find the woman and save her, but begging her former colleagues for help gets her nowhere. It's clear that this time Helen is on her own.

Racing against the clock, Helen soon discovers a whole group of vulnerable women who desperately need her help. But fighting crime as a maverick is a dangerous game. One that could cost Helen her life, and the life of those she holds most dear...
