About

"Classy and able thriller, with crunchy London backgrounds . . . An agile and ingenious plot . . . (The) forecast for the series is excellent." -Literary Review



A married airline pilot lies dead in his London flat-a shattered champagne bottle left protruding from his abdomen.



Film footage shows Teddy leaving Heathrow with an unidentified man. What secrets is he hiding?



Ex-cop turned private investigator Billy Rucker joins the case on the exhortation of Teddy's brother, a well-known MP. For Rucker it's the start of a lonely trail through the city, clutching a grainy black and white photograph and a gnawing suspicion at the pit of his stomach.



Until a chilling phone call in the night changes everything . . .



Packed with chilling suspense, Adam Baron is perfect for fans of Stuart MacBride, Robert Bryndza or Peter James.



Praise for Adam Baron:



"Rucker is an intelligent, reflective hero, a man well worth keeping an eye on." -Donna Leon, New York Times–bestselling author of the Commissario Brunetti series



"It is Rucker's disillusioned monologue that makes Shut Eye stand out . . . An accomplished first novel." -The Times



"A surefire hit." -Aberdeen Evening Express



"Good gritty stuff." -Crime Time



"A treat." -Evening Standard
