A seasonal psychological thriller set during a wrap party of a fictional detective TV series in London. Perfect for fans of Alex Pine and Chris Frost. This Christmas, someone won't make the final cutDI Morten Bankwood is in trouble. As his long-time nemesis stalks towards him with a blade, it seems death has finally found him. Then the director calls cut. It's a wrap for the latest season of Bankwood and the end-of-season party is due to begin. Cast and crew gather to celebrate the end of an era, but it seems someone has more sinister plans in mind. In a spectacular underground hall filled with many tunnels, dark corners, no phone signal . . . and one way out, who will make the final cut this Christmas?
