#taken in the night
They thought they were kidnapping the mistress of one of London's most powerful gangsters. But they've taken the wrong woman. And crossed the wrong detective.

Detective Max Wolfe's hunt for the missing woman takes him from New Scotland Yard's legendary Black Museum to the glittering mansions of career criminals, from sleazy strip joints to secret sex dungeons - and to unspeakably dark deeds committed decades ago.
#taken to the limit
It's a world of family secrets, sexual jealousy, and a lust for revenge - which might also become Wolfe's grave...

* 'There are lots of twists and surprises along the way and I will definitely be reading the other books in this series.'
* 'A propulsive page-turner'
* 'A wonderful writer that brings a much needed warmth to a great detective series.'
