From #1 Sunday Times bestseller Irvine Welsh, the brand new novel in the CRIME series featuring former detective Ray Lennox
\"The truth is what we say the truth is . . .\"
Ray Lennox is determined to move on from his darkest days. The maverick former detective has left Edinburgh for a new career and a new relationship in Brighton. Soon, his fixations and addictions have been replaced with quiet evenings and a rigorous fitness regime.
Then Lennox meets Mathew Cardingworth. Rich, smooth-talking and immaculately dressed, he presents himself as a successful, and respectable, property developer. Yet their encounter reawakens memories that have haunted Lennox for decades, sending him into a spiral of confusion and rage.
Lennox has no choice - he must confront the events of his childhood. But the more he identifies the links between Cardingworth, the disappearance of a group of foster care boys and the violence of his past, the more he finds himself asking-
What will he sacrifice to achieve resolution at last?
