Cry Justice is the fourth in the DI Charlie George series. It was published by Little, Brown in London in October 2021.
There’s the law.
Or there’s justice.
Most extreme acts of violence are pretty random. But murdering someone and impaling their head on the railing outside the Royal Courts of Justice, well that takes planning.
And when the pathologist finds a page from a book rammed down the dead man’s throat, DI Charlie George thinks it’s safe to assume that someone, somewhere, wants to send a message.
But people who have the resources to plan a murder like that, they’ve also got the nous not to get caught. So Charlie knows he has a problem.
Whoever the killer is, he doesn’t think they’ve finished doling out rough justice just yet. He just wishes he could summon the enthusiasm to stop them.
Because sometimes people really do get what’s coming to them.
You have to wonder: which side of the law is justice really on?
