THE LIES OF THE PAST . . .
 
When an anonymous tip lands on his desk, DS Adam Tyler is intrigued in spite of himself. The disappearance of a young mother twenty-four years ago was big news, but the case was never solved - this tantalizing new lead is something he simply can't ignore. But the letter has set in motion a dangerous chain of events, and Tyler's search for the truth soon leaves him fighting for his life.
 
. . . LIVE IN THE PRESENT
 
With Tyler out of action, DC Mina Rabbani must step up to lead the Cold Case Review Unit in his absence, retracing Tyler's steps and uncovering his secrets to figure out what he was working on. But as she begins to put the pieces together, the case starts to hit frighteningly close to home. Without DS Tyler to protect her, Mina realizes that now she's the one with hard choices to make.

And this time she's on her own.

'One of the best police procedural series in recent years . . . Addictive, immersive, and an absolute must for any crime fiction fans' ROBERT RUTHERFORD

'At last, a police procedural with real emotional depth, a heart rending plot that hooks from the first page and, in Tyler and Mina, a very charismatic cast' CARO RAMSAY 
'For anyone who loves to binge a series, here's your next obsession . . . Thomas goes from strength to strength!' JO FURNISS 
'A confident thriller with beautifully drawn characters and a blindingly executed twist that won't disappoint' TIM SULLIVAN

About the Author: Russ Thomas was born in Essex, raised in Berkshire and now lives in Sheffield. After a few 'proper' jobs (among them: pot-washer, optician's receptionist, supermarket warehouse operative, call-centre telephonist and storage salesman) he discovered the joys of bookselling, where he could talk to people about books all day. His highly acclaimed debut novel, Firewatching, is the first in the DS Adam Tyler series and published in February 2020. Nighthawking and Cold Reckoning, the second and third books in the series, followed in 2021 and 2022.  To find out more, visit his website or follow him on Twitter:  https://russthomasauthor.com T: @thevoiceofruss​
