About the book

YOU CAN ESCAPE

The two young men always felt like outsiders. Being seventeen, considered the most difficult age, they found solace in smoking weed together; their bond was their only comfort. When they made the impulsive decision to steal a mobile phone and flee on a moped, they believed their luck had finally turned. Little did they know that their actions would lead them to face a dangerous adversary who was willing to go to any lengths to reclaim what was stolen.

YOU CAN VANISH

Meanwhile, DS Alexandra Cupidi is confronted with a bizarre and puzzling murder case in Kent. A severed limb is discovered concealed within a contemporary sculpture at Margate's Turner Contemporary art gallery. The wealthy art dealers behind the sculpture dismiss the incident, believing themselves to be untouchable by the law.

YOU CAN PERISH

As Cupidi delves deeper into the investigation, navigating through police bureaucracy and personal struggles, she becomes increasingly concerned about the fate of the runaway boys. They are the same age as her own daughter, making her fearful for their safety as they navigate the treacherous marshlands. The collision of two distinct worlds is imminent.

In Deadland, the intricate social divide of Kent is vividly depicted in this gripping crime thriller, filled with unexpected twists and emotional intensity.
