Denial

Introducing policeman Glenn Branson…

When actress Gloria Lamark takes her own life, her devoted son, Thomas, is heart-broken. Something must be wrong with a world in which such a tragedy is allowed to happen. How could her high-profile, media-star psychiatrist have failed to save such a special person, whom Thomas loved in such a very special way? Dr Tennent has a lesson to learn – a very painful one.

Michael Tennent is caught up in the first flush of love – but has no idea how dangerous romance can be. For both Michael and Thomas will do anything for the women they love . . .

‘James has been compared with Stephen King, but in many ways he’s better.’ Daily Express

‘Peter James is getting better with every book.’ Times
