One missing girl could be the link between two murders in “a really intriguing read that is packed full of suspense” from the author of Closer to Home (By the Letter Book Reviews).

DI Kate Fletcher is called out to a freezing canal where a woman’s body is found floating in a lock. With no identification, the police struggle to piece together the details of the woman’s life.

In Thorpe a daughter confesses to the murder of her father. She says she helped him escape a painful death from liver cancer but was her role more active than she claims?

As Kate and her team investigate, the links between the two cases are inescapable and everything seems to lead back to the disappearance of a teenager years earlier.

Then the main suspect vanishes . . .

It’s up to Kate to connect the events of past and present to bring the culprit to justice.

“A corker . . . Heleyne takes us on a tense ride as she explores two, seemingly unrelated crimes and the way in which she pulled them both together is what made this novel a really exciting read.” —Hooked from Page One
