Losing Control

What connects Teesside, England and Bhopal, India? A dead body? An outsourced IT desk? A tragic anniversary? Can DI Julie Cadell find the link before cyber-vengeance brings terror to Teesside? From the author of Phosphate Rocks – A Death in Ten Objects, a brand-new police procedural with a technological core.

A dead body washes up in Hartlepool. The autopsy reveals he was murdered. Police officers trace the scene of crime to the south bank of the River Tees where night watchman, Alf, keeps watch over a scrapyard. A woman comes forward to identify the victim, claiming to be his sister. The murder weapon is found in the possession of a colleague who reported him missing. It seems that the case can be closed. But DI Julie Cadell is not so sure.
