Evil lurks in the streets East London...

When retired DCI Frank Buckfield is found with his throat slit in a filthy Hackney flat, Denning and Fisher are under pressure to hunt down a cop killer. The scene is brutal, the motive unclear—and the victim’s fall from grace raises more questions than it answers.

Then a second body turns up: freelance journalist Magda Kilbride, murdered in a deserted East London car park, her injuries chillingly similar to Buckfield’s. As Denning and Fisher dig into both victims’ lives, they uncover links between the two victims that lead back to a ring of silence cloaking the blackest of crimes.

With senior officers closing ranks and careers suddenly on the line, Denning and Fisher must decide who they can trust—inside the Met and out. Because whoever is cleaning up the past is still out there....

A dark, twist-laden London detective thriller, "The Darkness Within" is ideal for fans of Angela Marsons, Mark Billingham and BBC's "Line of Duty".
