April, 1968. Detective Constable Cameron Kyle takes a bullet to the head. He survives-but the damage is done. Shrapnel in the brain. No telling what it'll do. Or when.
Kyle doesn't blink. His best friend's dead. His fianc e's gone. The world can burn for all he cares.But when his ex is snatched during a craftily executed prison break and a senior detective turns up dead in Kyle's own apartment, he's dragged back into the game.
Now he's the prime suspect, hunted by his own and tangled in a conspiracy that leads straight into the city's murky criminal heart.
At the centre of it all: the Italian-a ghost in the underworld, a name spoken in fear, a man who always seems three steps ahead.
The trail leads from London's streets to the bleak hills of rural Wales. Outnumbered, outgunned, and half out of his mind, Kyle sets off on a one-man rampage through the shadows. He's got nothing to lose-and he's done playing by the rules.
For fans of JM Dalgliesh, Lee Child, Mark Dawson, and David Baldacci, The Fragile Cage is a high-octane thriller packed with relentless action, black humor and edge-of-your-seat excitement.
