Book 5 of the DI Harriet Sloane series. 'No good deed goes unpunished.' A young man is found beaten to death in an East Belfast alley, yards from a homeless shelter. His name is Evan Flavelle. He is twenty-three. He had a family. He had nowhere to sleep. DI Harriet Sloane takes the case and quickly realises how easily it could be dismissed. No fixed address. No phone. No obvious witnesses. The kind of death people expect not to be solved. As Harriet traces Evan's last movements through the city, she is drawn into a world of shelters, street rivalries, quiet violence and well-meaning neglect. At the same time, pressures at work and fault lines at home begin to close in, forcing her to confront how much of herself she can afford to give. Because some deaths are easier to ignore than others. And some streets remember everything.
