After a brutal murder… Fear is the name of the game
A married airline pilot lies dead in his London flat – his torso scarred by a shattered champagne bottle left protruding from his abdomen.
But who was the man filmed with Teddy as he left Heathrow? What secrets is he hiding?
Ex-copper turned private investigator Billy Rucker joins the case on the exhortation of Teddy’s brother, a well-known MP. For Rucker it’s the start of a lonely trail through the city, clutching a grainy black and white photograph and a gnawing suspicion at the pit of his stomach.
Until a chilling phone call in the night changes everything…
Packed with chilling suspense, Adam Baron is perfect for fans of Stuart MacBride, Robert Bryndza or Peter James.

‘I found her… I found her twice.’
It’s the hottest summer since 1976 and a teenager, Lucy, has gone missing. Billy Rucker is asked to investigate.
Luck seems to be on Billy’s side. While working on another case in Camden Town, Billy is sure he catches a glimpse of her. All he need do is hang around the area and sooner or later she will turn up. Simple.
But when Lucy does appear Billy’s luck most definitely runs dry. At the centre of a murder investigation, he has only one way out…
The second suspense-filled Billy Rucker is an unputdownable crime thriller, perfect for fans of Robert Bryndza, L.J. Ross and Mark Billingham.
