Disgraced former detective Mike Humber is at rock bottom when he takes a night security job at a bleak fish processing plant and private dockyard on the Bristol Channel.
He soon sees a way to make some quick cash — but only if he can navigate the small-town secrets, betrayal, and greed that threaten to pull him under. Taut, lean, and claustrophobic with twists that will leave you guessing until the final page.

Naturally, being Mike Humber, that’s not what happens.
This time he takes a job as a night watchman at a fish processing plant and private dockyard. Which sounds simple enough. Keep an eye on things, earn a wage and try not to get involved in anything too dramatic.
Unfortunately, Mike Humber has the same relationship with trouble that magnets have with metal.
In true Humber fashion, he finds himself dragged, seemingly against his will, into some very dodgy business. Or does he?
One of the things I love about RR Haywood’s books is that you’re never entirely sure what’s really going on. Every time you think you’ve got things figured out, another clue appears and sends you back to square one.
After reading Huntington House, I spent most of this book on edge. RR Haywood had already taught me not to trust my own theories, so I found myself questioning everything and everyone.
The clues are there throughout the story. You can see them if you’re paying attention. The problem is working out which clues matter and which ones are there to make you look silly.
Then, in true RR Haywood fashion, everything comes together.
And suddenly all those little details that seemed unimportant don’t seem quite so unimportant after all.
I won’t spoil anything, but if you’re a fan of Mike Humber or RR Haywood’s knack for pulling the rug out from under you, you’re in for a treat.
Just don’t trust anybody.
Especially the fish.
Mike Humber is back!
