Actress Enora Andressen is dragged into the UK's exploding drugs scene when her son's girlfriend is kidnapped.
Malo is in trouble again. Enora Andressen's wayward son has received a ransom demand for the return of his girlfriend, the daughter of a wealthy Colombian business tycoon. But how far can a mother trust her son? And where does Clemmie's disappearance fit in the murderous world of cocaine dealing?
With the help of Hayden Prentice, Malo's natural father and himself a one-time drug baron, Enora embarks on a hunt for the truth behind the kidnapping. The journey takes her deep into the exploding world of county lines, the new business model that delivers Class A drugs into every corner of the kingdom.
Drug dealing is the new normal. The sums of money at stake are dizzying and a human life counts for nothing. As Enora Andressen is about to discover . . .
