Some people ask to be murdered, like the journalist who researched a VIP paedophile ring. To kill the story you kill the writer. Someone did. Homicide detective Joanna Best has suspects galore but her favourite gets murdered. Now Jo Best is both a brilliant cop and a bloody good crim. She and a friend set up a scam to retrieve a small fortune pinched by two gangsters - the Brothers Crimm. Life gets interesting. The crims kidnap and torture, the top cop sets up a sting, and Jo's father gets arrested. Life wasn't meant to be easy. Whodunit with the two murders and what will Jo lose first--her career, a limb or her life?
