However, unsettling events - tyres slashed, bricks through windows - make it clear that someone is really gunning for Mike.
There is just one print job to put to bed in time for a lavish launch party at Ornum House. All goes according to plan until one of Mike's employees is found dead . And he wasn't the only casualty. DI Sloan and DC Crosby havea tangled set of motives and some devious chicanery to unpick to discover a killer.
