Sobre este título
As the daughter of a London crime boss, PC Philomena McCarthy walks a thin blue line keeping the two sides of her complicated life apart.
On patrol one night she discovers a child in pyjamas, wandering alone. Taking Daisy home, Phil uncovers the aftermath of a deadly home invasion, as three miles away a prominent jeweller is found strapped to an explosive in his ransacked store.
The crimes are linked, and all the evidence points to Phil's father as the mastermind.
Phil's two worlds are colliding, trapping her in the middle of a vicious gang war that will threaten her career and everyone she loves.
Who can she trust - the badge or her own blood?

PRAISE FOR THE WHITE CROW
I raced through The White Crow. It's another tour de force from Michael Robotham. He is so good at humanising his characters - even the nasty ones (LINWOOD BARCLAY)
It's a rare treat to read crime fiction and adore the entire ensemble of characters. Everyone from PC Philomena McCarthy to Detective Keegan to Eddie McCarthy and his three old-school criminal brothers is so beautifully drawn - you tear through the pages praying they can be trusted. The pace clips along and the plot is full of lovely jinks and twists (LAINIE ANDERSON)
Tension imbues this dark tale, with action reaching a scary crescendo . . . End-to-end excitement for crime fans
A tense, fast-moving and hard to put down novel
The research is impeccable, the plot simple: a kind of Good versus Evil, building to a fiery shoot-out on Bonfire Night . . . And who can not be engaged by a girl [PC Philomena McCarthy] who can talk to small children, has a black belt in karate and who can kill a villain with a kick?
A stunning crime novel (BOOKLIST)
