FROM THE #1 BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF THE THURSDAY MURDER CLUB

A brand new series.
An iconic new detective team.
And a thrilling new murder to solve . . .

-----

Steve Wheeler is enjoying retired life.

He does the odd bit of investigation work, but he prefers his familiar habits and routines: the pub quiz, his favourite bench, his cat waiting for him when he comes home. His days of adventure are over: adrenaline is daughter-in-law Amys business now.

Amy Wheeler thinks adrenaline is good for the soul. As a private security officer, she doesnt stay still long enough for habits or routines.

Shes currently on a remote island keeping world-famous author Rosie DAntonio alive. Which was meant to be an easy job . .

.

Then a dead body, a bag of money and a killer with their sights on Amy have her sending an SOS to the only person she trusts. A breakneck race around the world begins, but can Amy and Steve stay one step ahead of a deadly enemy?
