A rainy night in London. Shots are fired into a car which swerves on to the pavement and ploughs into a bus stop. It seems that an act of casual gang violence has cost an innocent victim their life. But the reality is even more chilling . . . One life is wiped out and others are changed forever. A pregnant woman struggles desperately to uncover the truth, and makes herself a target in the process. Two weeks from giving birth, how will she survive in a world where death is an occupational hazard? In a city where violence can be random or meticulously planned, where teenage gangs clash with career criminals and where loyalty is paid for in blood, anything is possible. Secrets are uncovered as fast as bodies, and the storyís final twist is as breathtakingly surprising as they come.
