Killing for Christmas D. A. Barker

Late December in Northern England. A man, warped to his soul, waits to kill in the hope of erasing a life time of evil. A porn entrepreneur plans to flee with his mistress and embezzled millions. An Asian youth is at war with his conscience, torn between his love for a one time whore and his duty to honour a family arranged betrothal. A lonely policeman, pining for his wayward wife, becomes inveigled in the web of a female executive, hungry for sex but also hungry for power. And David Bane, a convicted killer, released from jail, haunted by his butchered wife and mesmerized by a girl so like his wife she might be her twin and yet is twenty years younger. A girl who calls herself Midnight, who sells her flesh on the net and has no shortage of buyers; a girl who is chained to an oversized pimp, as mean as a mule and as strong as a mountain gorilla. All are linked, all are drawn in; all collide and explode in a super nova. This is "Killing For Christmas".
