When the negotiations go wrong and the boy is rushed to hospital, Harry soon realises the danger is not over. Someone wants his patient dead, someone who has access to medical records, someone who will stop at nothing to hide the truth. Harry knows he can't save everyone. But he won't stop trying...

The Hollow Men

Crime's most original series character returns in a gripping new case. Dr Harry Kent is on the edge... He works too hard, sleeps too little, hardly sees daylight.

Except someone held Susan Bayliss down... The grieving parents of the children who died demand answers. The hospital is stonewalling. Everyone has secrets - it's up to Harry and DCI Frankie Noble to find out which were worth killing for. But Harry's taking this personally... and that means trouble's on its way.

Harry Kent - Niemand kommt Tätern und Opfern so nahe

Todeszeitpunkt

Einige Menschen retten Leben. Andere zerstören sie. Tagsüber arbeitet Harry Kent als Arzt in einem Londoner Krankenhaus, nachts ist er im Dienst der Polizei unterwegs – als Force Medical Examiner. Nicht nur, um die Polizei zu unterstützen, sondern auch, um an Informationen heranzukommen. Über Patienten, um die sich keiner kümmert, die niemand vermisst. Wie das Mädchen mit den pinkfarbenen Haaren, das alle nur Zara nennen und das im Koma liegt. Bei einem neuen Einsatz soll Harry den siebzehnjährigen Solomon Idris medizinisch versorgen. Der schwerkranke Teenager hat in einem Take-away acht Geiseln genommen und verlangt, einen Anwalt und einen BBC-Reporter zu sprechen. Doch bevor Harry ihm helfen kann, wird Solomon von der Polizei angeschossen. Harry lässt das Schicksal des Jungen nicht los, er will wissen, was ihn zu dieser Verzweiflungstat trieb. Als Solomons Leben auch im Krankenhaus bedroht wird, begreift Harry, dass der Junge etwas wissen muss, das niemals an die Öffentlichkeit dringen soll. Etwas, für das jemand bereit ist zu töten.
