Sinossi
This is a breathlessly pitched police thriller dealing with murder and protection, full of intrigue and narrative twists portraying a murky world populated by vivid, deeply flawed characters, nightmares and flashbacks. The action switches between Cardiff and London. Powerfully written and uncompromising in its style the author makes use of various games, such as squash and chess, as a metaphorical sub-plot that registers the various psychological maneuvers of the characters as they negotiate a world in which no-one is what they seem - inadequate police, psychopaths - inadequate police who are psychopaths, sexual deviants, and torture-junkies.

Recensione
What a brilliant book... crying out to be a major bestseller and a major film... mesmerizingly written. Superb! --Katherine John
...utterly compelling, the psychological impact on the individuals enrolled on the Witness Protection scheme that forms the basis of the book is fascinating... highly recommended for those looking for a crime novel that is that bit different. --Newbooks magazine
Visceral, strongly visual and beautifully structured... powerful, quirky characters. --Andrew Taylor, Winner, Crime Writers AssociationCartier Diamond Dagger
