The House Always Wins
Ethan Harris’ life is shattered by a series of apparently unconnected events: the murder of his wife, Rachel, a hacking incident at the bank where he works and the theft of his belongings on the underground. When DCI Scott investigates the case, he finds that Harris is not as squeaky clean as he initially thought; he has big debts and a gambling habit. When the investigation determines that Rachel was almost certainly killed by a professional hit-man, the focus turns to Ethan as the possible procurer of the contract. Devastated, Ethan searches through Rachel’s belongings for some clues, bringing him into the underworld of GCHQ, MI6 and the German Federal Intelligence Service (BND) in a chase across London and Berlin to uncover the truth.
