What you need to know before your trail

Detective Inspector Harry Virdee has a lot on his plate. His team is facing government cuts, tensions are building between Bradford’s two rival drugs gangs and his wife Saima is due to give birth any day now.

So when bodies start turning up in the old industrial district, the pressure is on to get the case wrapped up as quickly as possible, or risk a full-scale gang war.

But the man behind the murders is ruthless and pushy. And things are getting personal. Harry must think fast and bend the rules if he wants to keep his city, and his family, safe . .

Travel Guide

Discover Bradford with AA Dhand and Quick Reads

You certainly get a good picture of inner city Bradford and its drug gangs! This is fiction of course but it’s a problem that many cities have and it’s raw and powerful as a result.

Bradford is a nice city with plenty of open spaces and streets to wander on a sunny afternoon. Of course, like any city, it has its dark side and this is created and explored here with style.

Next time you’re there, go to Lister Park and spot the lead character jogging around thinking of a case!
