The Death of Innocence: A heart wrenching, twisting British murder mystery: DI Tom Blake book 5
A secret so deadly, no one is safeâŠ
When controversial journalist Rosalyn French is captured on CCTV stumbling barefoot around a multi-storey car park after her laptop is stolen, Detective Inspector Tom Blake is called in to investigate.
Twenty-four hours later, her apartment is found ransacked and her body is discovered floating face down in a canal.
Rosalyn has been secretly meeting with a world-renowned scientist from a powerful pharma company. Were they having an affair â or is something much darker going on?
When the scientist is found dead in his lab with a knife clenched in his hand and Famacoxin kills carved into his desk, DI Blake must ask himself: is this smear of a groundbreaking children's cancer drug, funded by millions in research dollars, covering up far more sinister deeds?
The trail leads Blake and Interpol agent Olivia Kamberi across Europe to a corrupt Albanian town with Mafia connections. Could they be on the brink of uncovering a WWII atrocity that still affects the lives of the worldâs forgotten children today?
Will they be in time to discover a horrifying truth, and protect more innocent children from murder, before the powerful forces they hunt silence them forever?
From gritty, industrial Stoke, to the spectacularly dramatic mountains of southern Albania. This heart-wrenching crime thriller will keep you hooked to the end.
