Summary

A daughter's death
A teenage girl is found, brutally murdered in her squalid flat.

A mother's love

Her mother is devastated. She gave her child up to the care system, only to lose her again, and is convinced that the drug-pusher boyfriend is to blame.

Two ordinary women, one extraordinary job
DC Rachel Bailey has dragged herself up from a deprived childhood and joined the Manchester Police. Rachel's boss thinks her new recruit has bags of raw talent but straight-laced DC Janet Scott, her reluctant partner, has doubts.

Together Scott and Bailey must hunt a killer, but a life fighting crime can be no life at all...

Thoroughly excellent ((TV REVIEW))
Gripping ((TV REVIEW))
DS Rachel Bailey and DC Janet Scott...make tweedy Oxbridge-educated gentlemen detectives seem like a long distant memory ((TV REVIEW))
Genuinely funny and touching ((TV REVIEW))
[A] grounded, realistic look at the world of the Manchester murder squad ((TV REVIEW))
