The Head Case
Roger Standing CBE, Head of Harmony High Academy Trust, and the Prime Minister's Special
Adviser for Education, is dead. DCI Tom Caton is not short of suspects. But if this is a simple mugging, why is MI5 ransacking

arrives in Hull. Twenty four Hours later bodies are found close to the M62 motorway. A young man and a woman are missing and
at risk. Caton must travel to China to pick up the trail. But the solution lies closer to home, in Manchester's Chinatown.
And time is running out.
