The Empty Consignment

di Daniel Mercer (Autore)

Hale & Chase, 2026

Nathan Ward knows how to follow money. But when his younger brother is found murdered behind his flat, Nathan is immediately barred from the official investigation. Then he finds what Luke left behind. A concealed memory card. Six company numbers. Irregular payments linked to Calder & Rook Logistics. And a pattern of supposedly empty freight movements that refuses to make sense. Working outside the case that should have been his, Nathan begins rebuilding Luke's trail through shell companies, route exceptions, CCTV, frightened witnesses and the hidden approval chains inside a legitimate transport business. Each verified connection takes him closer to a criminal operation—and to people willing to use violence to keep it protected. But Nathan has already compromised evidence the police may need, and grief keeps pushing him towards certainty before the facts can support it. To identify the person responsible for Luke's death, he must prove every link without destroying the investigation, endangering the people around him, or surrendering completely to revenge. Set across the rain-darkened logistics corridors of northern England, The Empty Consignment is a tense procedural crime thriller about evidence, vengeance and the price of knowing who is guilty.
