Publisher's Summary

DCI Hanlon faces the toughest decision of her career as a string of political murders lead to a deadly confrontation.

A controversial, right-wing German politician is due to speak at the Oxford Union. Following a series of murders linked to a violent anarchist group, the city is on high alert. DCI Hanlon has been partnered with DI Huss to ensure the speech goes smoothly and that there will be no more killing.

Meanwhile, as Hanlon traces the person behind the murders, she soon realises that the chilling truth has a terrible price. Is Hanlon willing to meet the cost?

The final gripping case for DCI Hanlon. Perfect for fans of Angela Marsons, Lisa Regan and Mark Dawson.

This book was previously published as An Incidental Death by Alex Howard.

Another enjoyable Hanlon book

I did enjoy it and powered through it as quickly as the others. Perhaps a tiny bit confusing early on - but I enjoyed it once it got going.

Don't waste your money

I tried, but the narration was so poor it wasn't worth the effort. Very disappointing as I've enjoyed other Hanlon novels.

The use of gore replaces any storyline

I didn't finish this book, as it descended into gratuitous violence, that replaced any story line it may have had. I skipped entire chapters trying to avoid pointless violence.
