'Davies is now firmly established among the premier league of writers delivering fast, well-crafted thrillers ... should be in everyone's beach bag this summer' Daily Mirror.
Imagine the one you love most has been killed by a fanatic's bomb.
Imagine that the politicians' promises of justice turn to ashes, that the police investigation stalls.
That the bombers still walk free - and they will strike again.
Then hopes for justice turn to dark visions of revenge - especially as the names of these terrorists are known to all.
The relatives of the victims prepare to take the law into their own hands. But they too carry their own guilt.
Maddy because, unwittingly, she sent her two children and her husband to meet their deaths. Rob because he had brought the crippled boy who had saved his life home to Britain, only for him to be killed.
Maddy and Rob - and the others - owe a debt to their dead. Now they will be avenged.
Recommended for fans of Stephen Leather.
Previously published as The Dogs in the Streets.
