When police respond to a late-night shooting, they anticipate a drug or gang-related incident, but instead discover a young student, Jordan Radley, executed on his way home. Jordan was an ambitious and well-liked aspiring journalist whose first major story on the impact of a local factory closure had just been published, marking the start of his desired career. He had been in contact with sources on his way back from a social club the night he was killed. As detectives investigate, they uncover that not only was Jordan murdered, but his assailants also broke into his home, stealing his laptop and notes. What critical research might have led to his death? Could this be connected to another case previously deemed an accident in the same area? The police face the challenge of prioritizing cases based on connections rather than those who truly need justice. From an author nominated for the Theakston Old Peculier Crime Novel of the Year, this gripping narrative is ideal for readers who appreciate complex characters and socially relevant themes. Critics praise the author for expertly building tension and crafting thought-provoking stories that reflect contemporary issues while maintaining a gripping pace.
