Nobody Walks

In Mick Herron's Nobody Walks, Tom Bettany is working at a meat processing plant in France when he gets a voicemail from an Englishwoman he doesn't know telling him that his estranged 26-year-old son in London is dead. Maybe it's the guilt he feels about losing touch with Liam that's gnawing at him, or maybe he's actually put his finger on a labyrinthine plot, but either way he'll get to the bottom of the tragedy, no matter whose feathers he has to ruffle. He might have thought he'd left it all behind when he first skipped town, but nobody ever really walks away.
