The Sunday Times bestseller

Fifteen months ago, Detective Lindsay Boxer's life was perfect. With her beautiful baby daughter and doting husband, Joe, she felt nothing could go wrong.

But when Lindsay discovers everything she knows about Joe is a lie, she is reeling from his betrayal just as a wave of mysterious heart attacks strikes seemingly unrelated victims across San Francisco.

And at the trial of a bomber Lindsay and Joe worked together to capture, his defence raises damning questions about Lindsay and Joe's investigation.

A deadly conspiracy is working against Lindsay and soon she could be the one on trial. . .
