Summary

‘A compulsive thriller’ Ann Cleeves
‘Not to be missed!’ Daniel Sellers
His team is compromisedAs dusk falls the night before the trial of notorious crime boss Thomas Unwin, the prosecution’s star witness is brutally murdered, his killer escaping in plain sight from a secure hotel.
His girlfriend is in dangerDetective Rick Turner spent months building the case against Unwin, and he’s not willing to give up now. But Unwin has one final trick up his sleeve to turn the trial in his favour: he has Rick’s girlfriend, Jess, kidnapped in a plan to coerce Rick into throwing his own testimony.
The biggest case of his life hangs in the balanceFaced with a stark choice, Rick must find Jess or give false testimony which would cost him his career and let Unwin walk free. But with the net closing in Rick must soon face a terrifying truth: the killer is closer to him than he ever expected, and as the case turns personal there is no one he can trust, not even his closest colleagues…

Perfect for fans of Gytha Lodge, Michael Wood and Matt Brolly

Reviews

‘Murphy has always been an exciting writer, but this brings the tension to an even greater level. Dead Man Walking is a compulsive thriller with pace, brilliant plotting, and characters who are credible, despite the extraordinary situations in which they find themselves.’ Ann Cleeves, Sunday Times bestselling author of the Shetland and Vera Stanhope series ‘In Dead Man Walking, M K Murphy grabs the reader by the collar and pulls them through a wildly suspenseful, high-stakes plot — never letting go till the very last page. Not to be missed!’ Daniel Sellers, bestselling author of Murder in the Gallowgate ‘I loved this. An immediately gripping, compelling and emotionally wrought thriller where the high stakes and strong mystery never let up from first page to last. Clear your diary and get reading!’ Gytha Lodge, author of She Lies in Wait 'An unstoppable and addictive thriller. Clear your diary, you’ll want to read this in one sitting.’ Michael Wood, author of the DCI Matilda Darke series ‘Rich with tension and action, there are surprises at every plot twist.’ Marni Graff, award-winning author of the Trudy Genova Manhattan Mysteries ‘Tension bristles on every page on this rollercoaster of a read. I couldn't put the book down.’ Sarah Ward, author of the Mallory Dawson series ‘Always exciting to meet a new detective, esp when they're as kick ass as DS Rick Turner… Kidnapping and killing for days in this hard slice of London crime. Very keen to read the next in the series.’ Dan Malakin, author of The Box 'Once again, Murphy KNOCKS IT OUT OF THE PARK!' Shannon Kirk, award-winning author of Tenkill Expand reviews
