Synopsis

________________________
The gripping first novel in the DC Max Wolfe crime series by Tony Parsons, bestselling author of Man and Boy. Like Ian Rankin or Peter James? You'll love this.

Twenty years ago, seven rich, privileged students became friends at their exclusive private school, Potter's Field.

Now, they're being murdered one by one, in the most violent way imaginable.

Detective Max Wolfe has recently arrived in the Homicide division of London's West End Central, 27 Savile Row.

Soon he is following the bloody trail from the backstreets and bright lights of the city, to the darkest corners of the internet and all the way to the corridors of power.

As the bodies pile up, Max finds the killer's reach getting closer to everything - and everyone - he loves.

Soon he is fighting not only for justice, but for his own life...
