With her are her friends Harry and Patrick. Outside initially unaware of her being involved is her fiance DI Alec Friedman.
Naomi is certain that she recognises the voice of one of the bank robbers, but has he recognised her?
A heat wave adds to the tension for the hostages, the bank robbers and the
police until it reaches an unbearable level. A skilful portrayal of a hostage
situation seen from all three angles; once started you have to read this book
to its gripping conclusion.
