From the no.1 bestseller Val McDermid: When union leader Tom Jack falls to his death after a spectacularly public row with Lindsay, the only way to prove her innocence is to find the real culprit. When lecturer Lindsay Gordon returns to the UK for a trade union conference in Sheffield, she finds herself in the company of old friends and enemies, including corrupt union leader Tom Jack.
When Tom is found dead, falling from Lindsay’s tenth-floor hotel room, she is instantly pegged as the top suspect.
Desperate to clear her name, Lindsay searches for the real killer among the hundreds of union delegates at the conference, uncovering a seething cauldron of blackmail and corruption.
