Detective Jo Shaw has it all worked out. Sheโs good at her job, she has loads of mates, and she likes being single. She doesnโt need complications, but an emergency call to the stabbing of a young woman brings plenty of those. Jo has to risk her career to save the womanโs life, and a bad night gets worse when the trauma surgeon turns out to be Isla Munro, Joโs only real love, who walked out on her fifteen years ago and never came back.
