1970, Bristol. What's buried doesn't always stay buried.
It's a new decade and JT Ellington has taken himself out of the
investigation game. But when an old friend asks him to help a doctor
whose son disappeared hours after his wedding, JT's commitment to a life
lived under the radar is tested. His quest hurls him back into the
underworld he's worked so hard to leave behind.
Charred remains in a churchyard, the savage beating of a Hindu priest
and a series of cold-blooded threats are stark warnings to JT, and to
everyone he holds dear. Amid his terrorised community, JT locks horns
with the vile underbelly of British far-right politics and a notorious
gangland king.
It's not until JT uncovers a name from his own tragic past that the
pieces of the investigation slot into place. But, with dark forces
intent on destroying him, JT is pitted against an extraordinary enemy.
He must play as dirty and dangerous as those who want him dead.
