This is book number two of the DC Jack Warr Series and can be read as a stand-alone. DC Warr has gained himself something of a reputation in the chasing down and apprehension of gangs carrying out a series of well-executed burglaries. As a result, he is sent from his home base at The Met, London, to assist with a similar spat of crimes in Chipping Norton in Oxfordshire.
When Detective Jack Warr identifies an informer, the terrified man begins to give details of a massive robbery planned by a team of unscrupulous and dangerous men.
These men have already orchestrated many audacious robberies, leaving terrified victims in their wake. And they have already killed to get what they want. Detective Jack Warr and his team must use their informant as a 'Judas Horse' to draw in the unsuspecting robbers, so that they go ahead with the planned robbery.
This is a slow build, with some action, the character of Jack Warr is tough but likable. Interesting how we learn a bit of his past, why he has certain tendencies.
