A private surgeon is found dead in his consulting rooms. No witnesses. No weapon. Just two sets of bloody footprints leading to the fire escape. Roland Vance was respected, discreet, successful. So why was he alone in the building after hours - and why does the murder feel so personal? DI Jordan Carr is called to Rodney Street on a rainy Liverpool morning and walks straight into a mess - forensic delays, clinic stonewalling and a rising sense that something is being covered up.

A private surgeon is found dead in his consulting rooms. No witnesses. No weapon. Just two sets of bloody footprints leading to the fire escape. Roland Vance was respected, discreet, successful. So why was he alone in the building after hours - and why does the murder feel so personal? DI Jordan Carr is called to Rodney Street on a rainy Liverpool morning and walks straight into a mess - forensic delays, clinic stonewalling and a rising sense that something is being covered up. Then a young woman's body turns up in a park outside Ormskirk. Same kind of wounds. Same vicious style. But no clear connection. As Carr's team dig into the lives behind the clinic's polished doors, witness statements twist, evidence disappears, and the truth becomes harder to reach. Someone's keeping secrets. Someone is still out there. Because the killer isn't finished. And what they're doing isn't random. Perfect for fans of Helen H. Durrant, Rachel McLean, and Michael Hambling. DETECTIVE PROFILES Detective Inspector Jordan Carr is a Black British officer navigating life as a new parent and a new boss in a hard-edged northern city. Thoughtful, principled and quietly driven, he leads from the front - gaining respect the hard way in a team not always eager to follow. Carr's strength lies in his calm persistence, and his loyalty to justice is matched only by his love for his family. Detective Sergeant Stella May is Carr's closest ally on the team - a sharp, down-to-earth investigator with a strong moral compass and a dry sense of humour. Fiercely loyal, she brings emotional intelligence and practical experience to every case. Stella doesn't mince her words, but she knows when to push and when to support. Her steady presence helps Carr keep perspective when the cases - and the pressures - mount. SETTING Liverpool and Merseyside - a city of contrasts: windswept beaches, crumbling tower blocks, derelict squats, shadowy canal paths. From the gritty estates of Kirkby to the haunted edges of the Irish Sea, this is a place where community and crime live side by side - and silence can be deadly. ¿¿¿¿¿ PRAISE FOR THE SERIES "An excellent story by Diane Dickson featuring DI Jordan Carr and the rest of his team.
