Ex-cop, ex-doper, invalided out of the Met after a stray bullet in the foot saved him from an investigation into the missing evidence from a drugs haul. The cops don't like him. The villains don't like him. Sharman is unemployable. So he's hired himself an office and set up shop as a private investigator in his south London patch. Divorces and debt-collecting were what he expected. What he gets is Patsy Bright, young, pretty, and missing. Her father wants her back. She's a good girl, a model, and only a little bit into drugs. With Sharman's connections it should be a piece of cake. Only when he comes to with a split head, a pocketful of planted heroin, a dead girl, and two policemen acting on a tip-off, does Sharman realize this case is different. And serious. And personal.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Oldcastle Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47032730157296,"sku":"9781843440796","price":22.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781843440796_p0.jpg?v=1763742944","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781843440796","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
