About this ebook
Crandle is an ex-soldier who is in the midst of a trial separation from his wife. Salvaging a work of art from a shipwrecked container he believes he is entitled to keep it. The painting has a value far beyond his expectations and the owner offers a reward for its return. A criminal gang seeks to acquire the masterpiece, at first being subtle but eventually resorting to escalating violence. Determined to break free Crandle resolves to find a way to protect his threatened wife and daughter.
DI Jones and his sergeant struggle to unravel the trail of art theft and forgery. They discover one of their own working undercover. The investigation pursues the Fraternity, a secret organisation prepared to pay enormous sums to create an art collection. There can be no doubt that money and love corrupts the strongest of characters. Aiming to win at any cost the scheming mistress of a criminal tycoon finds that ruthless men, greed and betrayal are fitting partners.
