THE INFIRMARY
To the close-knit team of police in Northumbria CID, Ryan is still an outsider; aloof and uncompromising. He’s lived a charmed life and has an unbroken track record to match. But, as the Hacker’s death toll rises, Ryan realises this is one adversary he’ll never bring to justice on his own . . .
