No Questions Asked

No Questions Asked picks up where 'Storms' left off in the back garden
of Jeff Barton's house where he's hosting a barbecue for neighbours,
family and friends. The party is abruptly ended when the body of an
eleven-year-old child, the son of one of Jeff's neighbours, is found in
the woods nearby. As the covers are lifted on the secrets held by those
living around him he wonders if a child killer could be actually living
on his street. Whilst he tries to take his relationship with his deputy,
DI Rebecca Stockton, to a deeper level the investigation brings him
back into confrontation with his old nemesis Bernie Connelly who is one
of Manchester's most notorious gangsters and has a personal interest in
finding the child killer, leading him to pick off a list of paedophiles
who are the prime suspects. Added to everything else is a case of
political corruption that may or may not be linked to the murders and
this proves to be one of Jeff Barton's most complicated and yet most
urgent of cases to solve.
