Ashes In The Rain (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798271848537)

Ashes in the Rain
by Jordan Liss

In the heart of modern London, where the rain never quite washes the city clean, Detective Evelyn Shaw has learned that justice isn't about right or wrong-it's about who signs the paperwork.

When a whistle-blower journalist turns up dead and classified documents surface linking government contractors to secret disappearances, Shaw finds herself caught between the truth and her own department's cover-up. Branded a fugitive and hunted by the people she once trusted, she dives into a world of corruption, corporate espionage, and state-sanctioned violence that reaches higher than Parliament dares to look.

But some systems can't be dismantled-they can only be exposed.

As Evelyn follows the trail of a shadow network known as The Directorate, every answer leads to another betrayal, every ally becomes a liability, and every choice takes her further into the dark. When the only thing left to lose is herself, Evelyn must decide what survives when a city built on secrets finally starts to burn.

Gritty, atmospheric, and relentless, Ashes in the Rain is a modern detective noir that drags truth through the gutter and asks whether redemption still matters when the world has forgotten what clean looks like.

Perfect for fans of Tana French, Mick Herron, and Denise Mina, this standalone thriller launches a hard-boiled new heroine into the cold heart of the twenty-first century.
