The criminal network stretches far beyond the local Northumberland countryside.Botched operations, a divided and corrupt workforce, and a bleak landscape filled with desperate and disillusioned characters provide the backdrop for Ward’s chilling journey into the dark underworld of the north.It’s not always clear who’s running, or exactly what they’re running from.
