Bobby Fatokun is no stranger to conspiracies. A former police officer turned ‘Bad Coach’, he now reforms corrupt officers within the Met. But when a client requests an urgent meet and then turns up dead, Bobby suspects there’s more to the story than an accidental death.
Bobby’s investigation leads him to a church where the victim had been working undercover, but he isn’t the only one asking questions …
The church’s wealthy pastor has a powerful enemy at the heart of the British Establishment – one who will stop at nothing to neutralise a threat. As the pieces of their dangerous gambit fall into place, Bobby will have to tread lightly, or his search for the truth will turn deadly.
