Newly promoted to Detective Inspector, William Warwick must go undercover and expose corruption at the heart of the Metropolitan Police Force. Along with detectives Rebecca Pankhurst and Nicky Bailey, his team is focused on following Detective Jerry Summers, a young officer whose lifestyle exceeds his income—but the investigation risks being compromised when Nicky falls for Summers. Following Hidden in Plain Sight, this third outing finds Warwick was already deeply troubled by the corruption probe, and then his wife, Beth, befriends the ex-wife of one of his criminal rivals.
