"A stunning book and a series that has become a must read." M.W. Craven, Sunday Times Bestselling author of the Washington Poe series
Will Solomon Gray defy the odds and expose the deadly truth lurking beneath the surface?
Detective Inspector Solomon Gray is no stranger to the dark underbelly of crime, but when a junkie's lifeless body is discovered, he senses something more at play. Despite society's apathy towards drug users, Gray recognises the victim as an old school friend of his daughter. Fueled by a personal connection, he refuses to let the death be dismissed as just another statistic.
Unbeknownst to Gray, a menacing force has quietly infiltrated the town - the Albanians. Led by the merciless Leka Krisniqi, this brutal gang operates through fear and violence, making it nearly impossible for Gray to penetrate their ranks. Whispers from the streets reveal a chilling truth: Krisniqi's crew has been systematically eliminating anyone suspected of aiding the police. Their methods are insidious, lacing drugs with a lethal dose of contaminants, ensuring their victims meet an early demise.
Amidst this dangerous landscape, Gray receives an unexpected call from an old adversary, Sylvia, once the personal assistant to Gray's disgraced former boss and ex-friend. Sylvia's husband has vanished without a trace, leaving only unanswered questions in his wake. Reluctant at first, Gray hesitates to assist, deeming the disappearance insignificant compared to the string of murders plaguing the town. However, fate intertwines their paths, and Gray discovers a potential ally in E, a street dealer living in fear for her family's safety.
As the stakes escalate and the body count rises, Gray faces a race against time to dismantle the Albanian gang before more lives are lost. With personal demons and professional rivalries gnawing at him, Gray must navigate treacherous alliances and make heart-wrenching choices. In a web of deceit, corruption, and hidden motives, he must uncover the truth and protect those he holds dear, knowing that failure could cost him more than he ever imagined...
Pity The Dead is the fifth book in the detective thriller series featuring Detective Inspector Solomon Gray, perfect for fans of Ian Rankin, LJ Ross, and Peter James.
