Summary

A death in custody. A life in jeopardy.

When Ben Holdsworth dies alone in a police cell, riots erupt in Manchester. But after a post mortem, the authorities have decided nobody was to blame.

DI Ridpath is asked to investigate by the coroner before an inquest, and immediately uncovers some discrepancies in the witness statements.

Why was the CCTV not working that night? Where was the custody sergeant, and did he know the victim? Wherever he turns there are lies and gaps. It's a dangerous game and the net is closing... On Ridpath himself.

There is only one way out: uncover what really happened in the prison cells on that dark Manchester night.

A stunning crime thriller from a master of the genre, perfect for fans of Mark Billingham, Val McDermid and Ian Rankin.

Intriguing and twisted storyline

Another fantastic listen from M J Lee and Dan Bottomley, it intrigued, baffled and frustrated me in equal measures. Very satisfying conclusion though.
I just hope that in reality, the police are not as clueless about coronial proceedings as they are portrayed in this story but I'm not banking on it.

Another brilliant read

This was again a book I listened to and couldn't put it down, listened to it through the night and early hours. lots of intrigue and twists and turns and finally felt satisfied that his boss got what was coming to him. Just wish books 9 and 10 were available on Audible.
