When the witness protection program fails catastrophically, Sarah Bennett is forced to go on the run, narrowly escaping with her life as she is hunted across London by the organised crime group she is imminently due to testify against.
With the National Crime Agency compromised, private bodyguard Alex Drayce is hired to find Sarah and keep her safe.
But with Britain’s most powerful criminals on their trail, he’ll need to use every weapon in his arsenal to keep them both alive. Because one thing is certain: Sarah knows something these people want to keep hidden, and they’ll go to any lengths to keep it a secret.

Praise for Nowhere to Hide'I raced through it and loved it. I kept having to go back and check it was a debut, such was the accomplished writing style, the expertly drawn characters and the sheer quality of the story.

Private bodyguard Alex Drayce meets with the SIO in charge of his wife Lily's reopened murder investigation. With forensic evidence linking her death to the killer of another serving police officer, it should be an open-and-shut case.
When the DNA record comes up blank, Drayce goes on the hunt across the city, a one-man army with no rules. He speaks to witnesses in a manner the police can't, unearthing clues that lead him to a conspiracy between an international organised crime group and the Metropolitan Police.
Risking everything to discover the truth, Drayce refuses to rest until those responsible are punished, fulfilling a promise he made to his wife many years ago.
A blistering, hundred-mile-an-hour urban crime thriller of one man's relentless pursuit of vengeance.
