There's no hiding from a killer with nothing left to lose.

When DI Max Angel and DS Catalina Kincade are called to a hijacked lorry recently arrived from Romania, the carnage they find inside suggests its destination was a slaughterhouse, not a warehouse. Amid the bloodbath of the mobile execution chamber, the discovery of a woman's hairs on a blanket makes it clear cheap refrigerators weren't the only goods the butchered driver was transporting. After his human cargo is set free by the killers, Angel and his team find themselves caught up in a race to save the escaped girl before the people traffickers catch her and condemn her to a life of sexual slavery.

It's a cruel twist of fate Angel doesn't need as he struggles to come to terms with his wife's death, killed when another Romanian lorry driver fell asleep at the wheel and ploughed into their car. Now, Angel finds himself fighting his own superiors as they question his ability to get on with the job, to keep his personal demons at bay.

As the body count rises in the ruthless gang's wake, Angel is drawn to an old, forgotten case - the tragic suicide of another young woman trafficked across Europe into a life of unrelenting misery. And if things weren't tortuous enough, the murdered driver's brother - a detective from the Romanian police - turns up to offer an unofficial hand. The question is, whose side is he on?

Forsaken is the third book in the new Angel & Kincade series of crime thrillers from USA Today bestselling author, James Harper, a gripping, twisty adventure that will have you on the edge of your seat until the very last page.
