Product Description
The Shadow Step (Paperback)
Author: Mark Billingham
Format: Paperback
The new Detective Miller thriller from bestselling author Mark Billingham, full of tension, wit and incredible twists. 'I'm excited to have found a new favourite detective' CLAIRE DOUGLAS 'Edge-of-your-seat tension, wit and heart - fantastic!' LISA JEWELL 'Funny, moving, and full of surprises.
An absolute treat' MICK HERRON It's Detective Miller's deadliest dance... The Shadow Step: One taken simultaneously by a pair of dancers facing the same direction, one of them behind and slightly shifted leftwards ('in the shadow') Typically, such a step perfectly demonstrates synchronized elegance. It showcases a couple in near telepathic harmony with one another.
It does not normally end with someone stone-dead in a lake. DS Declan Miller is a magnet for strange cases, but how can he catch a killer when the man confessing to the crime is clearly innocent? Things rapidly escalate when the murder that isn't really a murder at all attracts the unwanted attention of a drugs Queenpin, a deranged ex-squaddie and a lovesick gangland enforcer.
Then a student is kidnapped... Throw in a wobbly dog, a pair of ceramic leopards and the distracting smell from a local biscuit factory, and - if he wants to save a young man's life - Miller has little choice but to waltz all the way into the shadows.
