When a firebomb attack at a Brighton travellers' site kills women and
children, Chief Superintendent Jo Howe has strong reason to believe the
new, dubiously elected, far-right council leader is behind the murders.
Against the direct orders of her chief constable, Jo digs deeper into

euthanasia all leading to a devastating plot which threatens thousands
of lives and from which the murderous politician looks sure to walk away
scot-free.
