Description

‘Searingly topical.’ THE TELEGRAPH

‘Shocking.’ HEAT

Detective Erin Crane and her partner Tom Radley have built their partnership on trust.

They watch each other’s backs. They share a contempt for Walker, the head of the anti-corruption team, that’s practically a running joke between them.

Then Tom uncovers Erin’s biggest secret. Instead of pulling them apart, it draws them together, and Erin and Tom begin a love affair that could cost them everything.

They’re supposed to be finding out who killed sixteen-year-old Sophie Madson. Instead, Erin finds dashcam footage of Sophie getting into Tom’s car less than an hour before she died.

Now the man Erin trusts most in the world is her prime suspect. And she has to decide how far she’ll go, for love, and for the truth.

Soon to be a major ITV series starring Michelle Keegan, Autumn 2026.
