Manchester: England's Second City.
A migrant worker who disappears without trace... A human trafficker who boils his victims alive... A century-old blood sport returns to the streets...

After a mutilated body is found, the junior officer is temporarily promoted to Greater Manchester Police's elite Major Incident Team
A brutal sex trafficker is the prime suspect. But Khorum isn't so sure that a strangely, secretive group aren't too blame.

WHAT PEOPLE SAY ABOUT THE COTTON HARVEST:
"... a gritty, assured debut thriller ... a convincing portrait of post-recession Manchester, with all its varied contradictions of wealth and poverty."
Manchester Confidential
"Despite its profusion of real-life crime, Manchester has been largely overlooked by crime fiction... until now. Strong characters, witty dialogue, and an urban landscape so gritty you could melt a Polar ice cap..."
Ben Black, author, Shooters: Guns and Gangs in Manchester in the 21st Century
