Blue Genes (PI Kate Brannigan, Book 5) by Val McDermid

A riveting Kate Brannigan thriller, from No.1 Sunday Times bestseller Val McDermid.

'Val McDermid remains unrivalled' Observer

Kate Brannigan's having a bad week. Her boyfriend's death notice is in the paper and her plan to catch a team of fraudsters is in disarray.

Kate can't even cry on her best friend's shoulder, for Alexis has worries of her own. Her girlfriend's pregnant, and when the doctor responsible for the fertility treatment is murdered, Alexis needs Kate like she's never done before.

Delving into the alien world of medical experimentation, Kate confronts betrayal and cold-blooded greed as she fights to save not only her livelihood, but her life as well...
