His books have sold 8.5 million copies. Now the No. 1 bestseller returns with a nail-biting PC Phil McCarthy novel As the daughter of a London crime boss, Police Constable Philomena McCarthy walks a thin blue line keeping the two sides of her complicated life apart. On patrol one night she discovers a child in pyjamas, wandering alone. Taking Daisy home, Phil uncovers the aftermath of a deadly home invasion, as three miles away a prominent jeweller is found strapped to an explosive in his ransacked store. The crimes are linked, and all the evidence points to Phil's father as the mastermind. Phil's two worlds are colliding, trapping her in the middle of a vicious gang war that will threaten her career and everyone she loves. Who can she trust - the badge or her own blood? 'It's a rare treat to read crime fiction and adore the entire ensemble of characters. Everyone from PC Philomena McCarthy to Detective Keegan to Eddie McCarthy and his three old-school criminal brothers is so beautifully drawn - you tear through the pages praying they can be trusted. The pace clips along and the plot is full of lovely jinks and twists' LAINIE ANDERSON 'I raced through The White Crow. It's another tour de force from Michael Robotham. He is so good at humanising his characters - even the nasty ones' LINWOOD BARCLAY 'Taut, smart, gritty, with twists and turns and compulsively readable. The tension is relentless, and just when you think you've found solid ground, he pulls the rug out from under you. My only warning: don't open the first chapter unless you've cleared your schedule. It's that addictive' Good Reading Magazine 'Addictive. Riveting . . . Thrilling and satisfying . . . Michael Robotham truly is a master craftsman at the height of his power' The Australian Women's Weekly 'A heart-pounding crime epic . . . One of the most memorable mysteries in recent memory . . . Robotham has done it again' Better Reading 'The suspense rachets up and the plot canters along all the way to the dramatic conclusion' Courier Mail 'A fast paced, highly accomplished crime novel with plenty of excitement and surprises . . . topped off with a neat final twist' Canberra Daily 'The plot is sleek and elegant, with interlocking story lines that culminate in a big, bloody finale. Readers will be sold on the prospect of another Philomena McCarthy mystery even before they put this one down' Publishers Weekly 'Tension imbues this dark tale, with action reaching a scary crescendo . . . End-to-end excitement for crime fans' Kirkus Reviews 'A stunning crime novel' Booklist 'Another standout thriller from Robotham. Fans of Peter Swanson and Liz Moore will delight in the complex characters and layered plotlines that he delivers' Library Journal
