A boat found abandoned off the north-east coast of England. A girl snatched from the banks of the River Tyne. Another discovered face down in a sea of mud. Something links them. Something rookie detective Ryan Jarrod must uncover before the sands of time run out - for him, and for those he holds most dear. DC Ryan Jarrod's first solo case is a missing person; a young woman who failed to turn up for an appointment. 'Routine, ' according to DCI Stephen Danskin. 'Probably nothing.' Danskin couldn't be more wrong. When a face from Jarrod's past appears, the young detective finds himself thrust into a world he never knew existed. It's a world of vice and prostitution, of kidnap and people-trafficking. A world where no-one seems to care but him. And, when an undercover operation goes tragically wrong, it's a world which changes Ryan Jarrod forever. Think of Anne Cleeves or LJ Ross with a gritty, urban twist - that's the DC Ryan Jarrod series: explosive crime fiction in the mould of traditional dark thrillers.What people are saying: 'As good as James Patterson''Unputdownable''A real page-turner''Cracking dialogue: a Northumbrian Rebus''The best book I've read all year.'

This new edition of the handbook of Quay Walls provides the reader with essential knowledge for the planning, design, execution and maintenance of quay walls, as well as general information about historical developments and lessons learned from the observation of ports in various countries. Technical chapters are followed by a detailed calculation of a quay wall based on a semi-probabilistic design procedure, which applies the theory presented earlier. Since the publication of the Dutch edition in 2003 and the English version in 2005, considerable new experience has been obtained by the many practitioners using the book, prompting the update of this handbook. Moreover, the introduction of the Eurocodes in 2012 has prompted a complete revision of the Design chapter, which is now compliant with the Eurocodes. Furthermore, additional recommendations for using FEM-analysis in quay wall design have been included. In response to ongoing discussions within the industry about buckling criteria for steel pipe piles, a thorough research project was carried out on steel pipe piles fi lled with sand and on piles without sand. The results of this research programme have also been incorporated in this new version. Finally, the section on corrosion has been updated to refl ect the latest knowledge and attention has been given to the latest global developments in quay wall engineering. The new edition was made possible thanks to the contributions of numerous experts from the Netherlands and Belgium.
