With rivals plotting her downfall and traitors hiding in plain sight, Josie must decide who she can trust—before the Dublin widow loses everything she's fought to protect.

Someone knows her secret—and she’ll lose everything if the truth comes out.

But with Sean risking it all, escape might no longer be an option.

A night out turns into a nightmare for a young man who is killed in Dublin’s city centre. Once a street brawl or mugging is ruled out, it begins to look like he was targeted. But why? DI Aidan Burke struggles to get anything useful out of the man’s friends and family, so the investigation leads to his workplace. It is here that they establish he was in a relationship with a co-worker.

It’s not the charred remains of Tony Phelan that really trouble Dublin law enforcement or the traces of accelerant, so much as the bullet hole in his chest. When a weapon is recovered at the back of the still-smouldering house, it will be the first clue that the death is connected to China. And when Phelan is identified as an airport worker, the investigation begins to focus on suspicious goings-on in relation to a regular A300 freight flight from Shanghai. But pointing the finger at the Chinese is all the rage, and maybe detectives have just been led up the garden path.

But the investigation turns up some unusual findings that point to serious organised criminal activity. Soon the race is on to collar suspects who are escaping to mainland Europe and out of their reach. 

When an elderly resident of a care home passes away during the night, little is thought of it. But when a routine investigation turns up an anomaly, suspicions are raised.

Concerned that they have a serial killer on their hands, DS Moore is nudged off her central role by her boss.
