內容簡介 接受證人保護計畫的前卧底警官吉伽農,受到謝里丹領導的地方警隊徵召,奉命結交惡名昭彰的兒童殺手,套出最後兩名受害者的埋葬地點,但他必須獨自入獄執行任務。 'A deftly-plotted, gripping, pulse-racing rollercoaster of a thriller . . . you're in for a treat' HARLAN COBEN 'Claustrophobic, ominous, and one hell of a ride' STUART MACBRIDE THE TENSE NEW THRILLER FROM THE 'MASTER OF SINISTER' (ANGELA CLARKE), FOR FANS OF CHRIS CARTER. Tom Killgannon, ex-undercover police officer and now in witness protection, is recalled to active service by a local police task force, headed by DS Sheridan. His mission is to befriend notorious child killer Noel Cunningham and find out where he buried the bodies of his final two victims. The catch? Tom has to obtain that information from within Blackmoor prison itself. Undercover and with no back-up, Tom soon runs into danger. In the prison is convicted gangster Dean Foley. He used to run Manchester's biggest gang, until Tom's testimony put him away for life. He recognises Tom, and so begins a cat-and-mouse game as Tom fights for survival before Foley can get his revenge. But why can't Tom reach DS Sheridan and what is the real reason he has been sent to Blackmoor prison?
