There's no fate worse than inheriting a dead man's debt.
Jake Tanner, a trainee detective constable with Croydon CID, is eager to impress his bosses. So when a body is found face-down in the city's farmlands, head crushed, split in two, Jake jumps at the opportunity.
The victim is soon identified as Zeke Harrison. A successful businessman and philanthropist. A man who had it all.
But, as the investigation into his death develops, it becomes clear that Zeke had more secrets than success.
And he had his debts - debts that got him killed.
But now they've been passed on to someone else. And Jake must find out to whom before history repeats itself.
