Dark Heart

D.I. Will Wagstaffe is called to investigate a gruesome murder, but they soon learn that the victim was arrested two and a half years ago on suspicion of sexually assaulting his young step daughters.

The detectives continue to look into a string of attacks on a series of people who were marked as paedophiles but never convicted, although Wagstaffe is frustrated by the eerie wall of silence from the victims' families. To make matters worse, a web of deceit begins to unravel - leading the DI to a disturbing conclusion.

D.I. Will Wagstaffe and his team investigate the mysterious death of a young nurse on the London Underground. Whilst CCTV reveals the victim fleeing an invisible assailant, forensics find a DNA link to a missing teenager presumed dead for seven years. Aided by his new team D.S. Rob Mullan, D.C. Ray Monk, D.C. Annie Webb and pathologist Dr. Luke Paul, Will unearths a bond of secrets and betrayals which leads him straight into the dark underbelly of the city.
