Take Out

It’s tough being a Detective Senior Sergeant in the Sex Crimes unit.

DSS Stevie Hooper is fighting to balance the seamier side of being a cop with her role as a mother.

And her latest case is not going to make it any easier.
It starts with a deserted house, an abandoned baby and an elderly neighbour who has the answers, but cannot speak.

Then the body of a woman turns up in the river - limbs bound, and a shotgun wound to the head.
Soon DSS Hooper is on the trail of a human trafficking ring.

A ruthless group with international connections that has at its rotten heart a disregard for all human life.
