DESCRIPTION
Black by Rose is the key to it all.

When Eddie Collins gets pulled off a job, and resigns because of it, a series of life changing events begins; but not only for him.

Then Eddie finds a gangland murder suspect dead in his house. He thinks life can’t get any worse, until he’s tied up in woodland with a gun at his head. And no way out.

The Major Crime Unit’s Operation Domino is the investigation into gang boss, Slade Crosby, and his connection with the death of an undercover officer. But tampered evidence halts Domino’s progress, and with Eddie out of the way, Slade is in the clear.

There’s only one way to get Slade in cuffs…

What people say about Black by Rose
~ An outright masterpiece.
~ The writing is urgent, exciting, at times upsetting, even terrifying. It is utterly convincing and extremely brutal where it needs to be.
~ 'Black by Rose' is a thriller but I think it is so much more.
~ You really get to care about Eddie and your heart is in your mouth when you read about what happens to him.
~ If you like CSI type books that are fast paced, gritty and with great believable characters, this is the book for you.
~ Again with this author's works, as soon as I started the story, I could not put it down.
