City of Sinners

'A character destined for television.' - Daily Mail

'High octane drama from one of Britain’s freshest crime voices.' - Phil Williams, BBC Radio Five live

It is an ordinary Yorkshire morning, cold and miserable.

The streets are not yet busy. Police cars hurriedly pull up in the centre of town, but none of their lights are flashing and the sirens are silent.

A body has been found, elaborately and painstakingly positioned to send a message. But what message? And to who?

It’s DCI Harry Virdee’s job to find out. But Harry doesn’t know that the killer is watching him, that the killer is coming for him.

Because this is personal.

'Dhand is a fearless writer.' - Sunday Times

  • DI Harry Virdee has established himself as a star anti-hero on the streets of Bradford, and Dhand’s brilliant creation doesn’t fail fans in this third book. . . Murder, drugs, racism… all this under the grim skies if West Yorks. Another winning read.
