Detective Inspector Simon Wise

A killer stalks the streets of London, murdering the richest people in the capital. Is this the work of a serial killer, or just someone angry with the super rich? Or is there another reason why billionaires are being killed every three days? Detective Inspector Simon Wise, reeling from the death of his partner and harbouring more than a few secrets of his own, is assigned to the case. But the killer leaves no clues as to their identity, only bodies in their wake, and each new death sends Wise's team in startling new directions.

The trial of notorious gangland boss, Elrit Selmani, is about to start but the star witness has gone missing. Without Derrick Morris' testimony, the killer will walk free. Detective Inspector Simon Wise and his Murder Investigation Team must race against the clock to find Morris before Selmani's gang do — except not everyone on Wise's team wants to find the man alive. Can Wise find Morris in time or will a deadly killer go free?

Still reeling from the devastating revelations about his own family, DI Simon Wise has no time to catch his breath. A killer is stalking the lost souls of London and leaving a trail of bodies in his wake. Short of resources, the Murder Investigation Team from Kennington Police Station are pushed to their limit as they try to stop more deaths from taking place across the capital.
