A gripping Kate Brannigan thriller, from No.1 Sunday Times bestseller Val McDermid.
‘Val McDermid remains unrivalled’ Observer
Manchester PI Kate Brannigan finds herself with no choice but to take the only case on offer: bodyguarding a paranoid soap star.
But the glitzy world of showbusiness has a darker side. And as Kate scratches the surface, she uncovers dramas, threats and bitter rivalries. And when a self-styled ‘Seer to the Stars’ is murdered, Kate is left with more questions than answers.
