THE THOUSAND FACES
OF NIGHT

 
A gripping drama of love and
revenge, set in a tough criminal underworld.

 
Hugh Marlowe fought for his country before ending up on the
wrong side of the law. After five hard years inside, he was ready
to fight anyone who stood in the way of what was his. Rough justice
was still the only thing he understood.
 
Until a beautiful, vulnerable woman started asking for his help ...
 
A world away from London gangland, Marlowe was ready to try a
new life. But like the night, his devil was waiting. Not one of his
faces the same ...
 
'A thriller writer in a class of his own' Financial Times
 
'A master craftsman. His writing is cool and measured, his
technical control seems effortless' Sunday Telegraph
