A mutilated body, an escaped prisoner, and suspects everywhere.

When the body of a badly mutilated woman is discovered, Detective Jon Pilgrim realises they’re hunting a disturbed new killer, with a particular hatred for women.
But the victims personal life is full of twists and turns, leading to several potential suspects, and few answers.

Elsewhere, Nathan is working with new team member Ellie investigating the murder of a rich, but reclusive man. All signs point to an escaped convict who has a history with Nathan and Kate.

Delving into the two horrific cases, secrets are uncovered and danger lurks around every corner. A vicious killer and a man bent on revenge stalk the streets, but could they be linked?

Jon’s team must find answers and crack the case before more people are senselessly killed.

Balance of Power is a pulse-pounding new thriller from author A L Fraine. Perfect for fans of LJ Ross, JD Kirk, JM Dalgliesh and Ian Rankin.
