Please note this was previously published as Going Underground.
Billionaire philanthropist Sir James Taylor has been missing for three weeks.
Then his headless torso turns up in the basement of a disused East London warehouse.
How could someone so rich and famous disappear without a trace? And who would want to tear him limb from limb?
Chief Inspector Brian Hooley knows his Special Investigations Unit needs help if they’re to have any chance of catching this depraved killer.
Enter Jonathan Roper.
Roper is one of Scotland Yard’s top investigators — exceptionally clever and doggedly determined. His autism means he sees the world differently, and he’s always spotting things that no else can.
Hooley knows Jonathan Roper is the only man for the job. Roper swiftly unearths a gruesome snuff video from the dark web showing Sir James’s death in horrifying detail.
Then Roper is beaten to a bloody pulp on his own doorstep. It’s a deadly warning from those who want their secrets kept hidden . . .
