In her work as a researcher, Brodie Farrell has only one rule - no missing people. But when the request to find someone comes from Superindentent Jack Deacon, Brodie finds it difficult to say no. Two young girls have been abandoned after their mother was brutally stabbed to death. Their father has vanished, presumably a sign of his guilt, so Deacon wants Brodie to find the girls' aunt while he tracks the missing father. Meanwhile, Brodie's friend Daniel Hood agrees to act as tutor for the girls. Daniel uses his skills not just as a schoolteacher but as the survivor of an equally horrific situation to befriend the two sisters and help them deal with their grief. But when the autopsy report throws up some unexpected results and an intruder breaks into the family home in the dead of night, Brodie realises that tracking a missing aunt is the least of her worries. Concerned for Daniel and the girls, she begins to uncover some disturbing mysteries that set her on a very dangerous path indeed...
