They have taken DS Aector McAvoy’s family.

Now the ruthless criminal network that has tightened its stranglehold on Hull intends to take everything that remains from those who dare to stand in its way.

McAvoys Guide to Hull
Hebdon Road pub ( close to HMP Hull)
A squat green pub which has six customers with 23 teeth between them. It’s not a sophisticated establishment and sits not far from HMP Hill
The bar does well out of the prison’s guards apparently
Hull Police
Pharaoh’s senior office knows Hull from way back. It’s changed since his day of course but the city is still the one he knows like the back of his hand. Clough Road and the concrete brick it resembles seems not to have changed though.
Newland Park
Scene of the crime in this novel but normally a nice, well to do area:
“Hull doesn’t have many luxurious neighbourhoods. Newland Park is part of a truly exclusive club. Most of the people with money in East Yorkshire move out to the towns and villages. Hull itself is a virtual sink estate for a much larger region”
