The Murder Exchange

Epilogue

Max Iversson was charged with the kidnapping of Krys Holtz, and is currently in custody awaiting trial. He has also been charged in absentia with the murder of Elsa Danziger, and is the subject of extradition proceedings being brought by the German government.

Neil Vamen was charged with murder, extortion and importation of Class A drugs, and is currently awaiting trial. None of the charges relate to the events covered here.

Jack Merriweather is being held in a segregation unit at Belmarsh Prison, London, where he too faces charges relating to the importation of Class A drugs. He is to be the prosecution’s main witness in the trial of Neil Vamen and six of his associates.

Elaine Toms was charged with the attempted murder of Max Iversson but was granted bail and promptly absconded. She is currently at large.

Jean Tanner has a new boyfriend and as yet faces no charges in connection with either the murder of Shaun Matthews or Craig McBride. Police are keeping a close eye on the boyfriend’s health.

Asif Malik remains at SO7, where he’s concentrating his investigation on several north London crime families who have had something of a bonanza since the collapse of the Holtzes.

And me, well, I’m a DI again, and at least halfway back to the position I was in a year ago.

You see, there is justice in this world. It’s just that sometimes it can take a long time to show itself.
