White Lies, Black Lies

It's just a white lie, a little white lie but it leads to the blackest lie of all.

A body on a study floor, what a way for Detective Constable Nikki Ross to start her first day in Major Crimes in Milton Keynes. As shiny and untested as her brand-new badge, she's keen to prove herself but nothing is as she'd expected when her mentor decides there's no crime to investigate.

She's ordered to move on to the next case, but her conscience has a loud voice and her promise to the victim weighs heavily on her. In her search through the lies, Nikki finds herself tightrope-walking the delicate, career-ending balance of finding the real truth. A high-profile victim has its own problems, not least of which are too many enemies with too many motives and secrets people will kill to keep hidden.

And it's not long before Nikki is gambling more than her career when her first case might be her last.

In White Lies, Black Lies, every truth is a deception, every deception a dangerous truth.

This high stakes gripping prequel to the DI Nikki Ross series will leave you questioning everything, right up until the last page. Perfect for fans of LJ Ross, Angela Marsons, JD Kirk, TG Reid, JM Dalgliesh and Alex Smith.
