Description
A terrible act of violence. A chance occurrence or something more sinister?On a beautiful summer afternoon, Stacey Sullivan is getting married to Mark James. But then screams smother the laughter, police sirens drown out the church bells. Out of nowhere, a drug-fuelled gunman opens fire on the wedding party.
The shooter is beaten, disarmed and detained by the guests. No one knows who the gunman is or if they do, they're not admitting it. The job of solving the two murders is laid solely at the feet of DI Charley Mann.
Could this be a random attack, or a pre-planned assassination? When information comes to light of a link to feuding drug-dealing families in Manchester, Charley's team need to act rapidly. They need to find and apprehend those responsible. Fast.
It soon becomes clear: if they fail, more deaths are coming
An utterly compelling crime thriller that won't let go, perfect for fans of J. M. Dalgliesh, Ann Cleeves and Angela Marsons.

Person
R.C. Bridgestock is the name that husband and wife co-authors Robert (Bob) and Carol Bridgestock write under. Between them they have nearly fifty years of police experience, offering an authentic edge to their stories. The writing duo created the character DI Jack Dylan, a down-to-earth detective, written with warmth and humour. Bob was a highly commended career detective of thirty years, retiring at the rank of Detective Superintendent. He was also a trained hostage negotiator dealing with suicide interventions, kidnap, terrorism and extortion. As a police civilian supervisor Carol also received a Chief Constable's commendation for outstanding work.
