Sins of the Fathers

When Julian Schaeffer is shot in front of his son in a London park suspicion falls on his estranged wife. The woman has a seemingly watertight alibi but Carlyle – trying to make the best of a difficult relationship with his new sergeant Umar Sligo – won’t stop digging.

Focused on the Schaeffer case the inspector is not too interested when Daniel Sands is hauled in to Charing Cross accused of kidnapping. Then he discovers Sands’s back-story and finds himself propelled forward in a quest for justice for two fathers and their destroyed families.
