Dead North (Sam Williams Book 1)

Two cops dead, and a witness who won’t talk...

Washed up lawyer Sam Williams still has a knack for getting people to talk. So when two cops are shot dead on a deserted back road and the only witness won’t talk, an old friend calls in a favour.

Repaying it might cost Sam more than he bargained for...
