The Minute Before Dying: A Race-Against-Time Thriller (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798298876193)

Sixty seconds to save a life. One city that never gives you enough time.

Every time a death is about to happen in Liverpool, DI Layla Rahman gets a message: a dropped pin, a single cryptic line, and an invisible clock counting down in her head. At the scene, there is always a number - chalked on walls, hidden in files, or printed on forgotten receipts - counting up with each victim. Someone is turning death into theatre, and Layla is their unwilling audience.

When the trail links back to a deadly ambulance outage in 2015, the bodies begin to form a chilling pattern: dispatch, allocation, hospital. The next minute is always planned. The next decision is always impossible. To stop the countdown, Layla must break every rule she trusts - or watch the city she loves fall victim to a killer who wants everyone to know the true cost of a single minute.

The Minute Before Dying is a gripping race-against-time thriller perfect for fans of Tana French, M. J. Arlidge, Tim Weaver, and Jane Casey. With relentless pacing, heart-stopping suspense, and a detective you'll never forget, this is a thriller that will stay with you long after you turn the final page.

When every second counts, courage becomes the only clock that matters.
