Ambitious young London police officer Philomena McCarthy returns in this “spectacular” (Booklist) psychological thriller by the author of When You Are Mine.
Philomena McCarthy has defied the odds to become a young officer with the Metropolitan Police, despite her father and uncles being notorious London gangsters.
On patrol one night, Philomena finds a barefoot child, covered in blood, who says she can’t wake her mother. Meanwhile, three miles away, a London jeweler has a bomb strapped to his chest in his ransacked store and millions are missing.
These two events collide and threaten Philomena’s career, her new marriage, and her life. In too deep, and falling further, Phil must decide who she can trust—her family or her colleagues—and on which side of the thin blue line she truly belongs.
Told in real time from multiple points of view, The White Crow is a “tense, fast-moving, and hard to put down” (Belfast Telegraph) suspense novel filled with dark psychological tension, moral complexity, and emotional stakes. A standout in female-led police procedural fiction, it’s a twisty thriller that confirms Robotham at the top of his game.

"For the second installment in the Philomena McCarthy series, Katy Sobey once again delivers a strong narration, She assumes the voices and accents of characters ranging from an English girl to Eastern-European gangsters, along with posh and not-so-posh Londoners. “Phil” is an officer with the Metropolitan Police whose father is a crime boss. While on patrol she encounters a child whose mother has just been murdered. The criminals have escaped with the father, who is being held hostage. The plot has numerous twists, and loyalties continually shift as Phil tries to find out who’s behind the horrific murder, abductions, and multiple threats, along with the blackmail that threatens her and, eventually, her family. Sobey keeps up the pace, narrating clearly right through the surprise climax."
