Dishonour / Gabrielle Lord.

Detective-Inspector Debra Hawkins has domestic violence in her sights. But as head of a new police unit targeting violence against women within cultural enclaves, she has hit a wall of silence. How can she help Rana al-Sheikly, a young woman who yearns for the freedom to lead her own life while her brothers are planning to send her into a forced marriage in Iraq? And what is the connection between the al-Sheikly men and the crime gangs that are running rife in the suburbs? A series of anonymous emails has Deb following her personal secrets, too -- back to her childhood and the murder of her police sergeant father. Someone is digging up the past -- threatening Debra's hard-won career, and even her life.
