THE NEW UP-ALL-NIGHT THRILLER FROM THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER CARA HUNTER

She has everything at stake; he has everything to lose. But one of them is lying, all the same.

When an Oxford student accuses one of the university's professors of sexual assault, DI Adam Fawley's team think they've heard it all before. But they couldn't be more wrong.

Because this time, the predator is a woman and the shining star of the department, and the student a six-foot male rugby player.

Soon DI Fawley and his team are up against the clock to figure out the truth. What they don't realise is that someone is watching.

And they have a plan to put Fawley out of action for good...

Fabulous

This book/audiobook is definitely the best book in the series (so far). I love DI Fawley as a character. He doesn't have any addiction vices and is a good husband, intuitive detective and fair boss. Boring? Anything but. Only a great writer can bring alive Add the great writing, brilliant plots and great narration. Add the way, with each book in the series, you get to know the other main characters and then ? I am not going to spoil it for you...
