Publisher's Summary

Don’t miss this incredible adrenaline-filled thriller that will keep you on the edge of your seat in 2025!

‘An author to keep an eye on … Dhand is a fearless writer’ Sunday Times

* * *

He knows everything about you. Including how to save you. And how to kill you.

Local pharmacist and pillar of the community, Idris Kalia, spends his days doling out methadone to the hundreds of addicts in his care. They trust Idris with their secrets, and so he knows more than his mild manner suggests. So when his childhood sweetheart, Sarah, doesn't turn up for her daily methadone dose, Idris is worried. Worried enough to go looking for her in the most deprived area of Leeds, alone.

He finds Sarah, and the mess he stumbles on places Idris in the middle of a turf war between the two most powerful drug cartels in Yorkshire. Now, he must use every bit of intelligence and cunning he has to keep those he loves safe.

Because a war is on the way. And when Idris goes after his enemies, they won't see him coming.
