Readers who love gritty British crime with morally tangled heroes and family at its heart

A dark, fast-paced crime thriller set on the gritty streets of Leeds, from the bestselling author of The Chemist.

Idris Khan is not the man he used to be. A killing has changed him for ever, and he now gets through each day as a pharmacist, holding on to small routines, like Rebecca's evening visit for her methadone, to keep a sense of normality in a life that has fallen apart.

Then his estranged brother Zidane walks into the pharmacy, fresh out of prison. Old secrets surface, new alliances form, and Zidane makes Idris an offer that could destroy everything. Should Idris leave Leeds for good, or become the man he has always feared he could be?
