Nick Oldham

"Grieving after a huge personal tragedy, Detective Superintendent Henry Christie is trying to pull his life back together. He's thinking seriously about retirement--after all, he's got the time in and he'd have a good life and decent pension. But all thoughts of a peaceful dotage are shattered when the phone rings in the early hours, and he is called out to investigate the brutal rape and murder of a teenage girl. Later that same day, after he comes face to face with a suicide bomber, Henry decides that retirement will have to be put on ice when he realizes he's having too much of a good time being a cop, and that hunting killers is what he was born to do..."--Jacket
