Acts of Vengeance

"On a stormy night in Broadminster, DCI Neil Paget walks a young constable to her car in a dark parking lot. As she roars past on her way home, Paget is attacked from behind, his throat viciously slit from ear to ear. By the grace of God he survives and is rushed to the hospital, where he remains in critical condition, unconscious and perhaps ready to draw his last breath at any minute." Meanwhile, the precinct is in an uproar. Who could have attacked their trusty DCI, so brutally and brazenly, directly behind the station house? As DS Tregalles and the rest of Paget's colleagues delicately comb through both his professional and personal lives, startling facts being to materialize, and the truth they are searching for become seemingly more distant with every passing moment.
