SHOULD HAVE LOOKED AWAY
It began on a Sunday. An ordinary Sunday, and a family trip to the mall.
Will Carter takes his five-year old daughter to the bathroom, and there he is witness to a fatal assault on an innocent stranger.
Over the next few days, Will tries to put the experience behind him, but when he sees one of the killers outside his home, he becomes more and more involved, soon passing the point of no return.
Becoming drawn deeper and deeper into something he does not understand, Will feels increasingly out of his depth and is soon asking where this is going and was the victim as innocent as he first thought…

During the investigation, Jack receives a call relating to an old case, one involving the murder of a twenty-year-old girl, suggesting that the case might not be as closed as everybody thinks.

His decision leads him into a dark place he never knew existed, and which puts him in great personal danger…

Philip Cox was born and raised in the UK seaside town of Southend on Sea, which lies forty miles east of London. After graduating from High School, he began a career in UK Banking and Financial Services, and spent the next decades working his way through the ranks, finally becoming a Branch Manager of a major UK bank.
Philip left banking after the birth of his first child to be a stay-at-home father, and it was during this time that, in between changing diapers/nappies, he began to write his first novel, ‘After the Rain’.
Now having written ten books, he is based in Hertfordshire, some twenty miles north of London, with his wife and two daughters.
During his spare time (what spare time there is between school runs and writing!), Philip enjoys indulging his interest in Model Railroading/Railways.
He is tall and slim, has a few grey hairs, and wishes he could get to the gym more often.
Philip’s website is www.philipcox.moonfruit.com, and he can be followed on twitter @philipcoxbooks, on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/philipcoxbooks, and facebook https://www.facebook.com/philipcoxbooks.
