**  
It's a cold November night, and DS Dennis Milne is waiting to kill three unarmed men.**  
  
Cynical and jaded, Milne earns money on the side by doing what he does best- punishing the bad guys.  
  
But he senses all is not quite right.  
  
This time, instead of shooting drug dealers, he kills two customs officers and an accountant.  
  
**The hunter has become the hunted. With his colleagues and his enemies closing in on him, Milne must use all of his skills, just to stay alive.**
