When a body is hauled from the River Tyne, Sarah Tucker heads to Newcastle for a closer look.

Why was she wearing the jacket a murderer had stolen years before? And what's brought Sarah's former sparring partner Gerard Inchon to the same broken-down hotel she's staying at? Coincidence is an excuse that soon appears pretty unconvincing. Sarah can't leave until she's found the answers to her questions, however dangerous they might turn out to be.From the Trade Paperback edition.
