Welsh Constable Evan Evans plumbs the past and present to search for connections between two troubling crimes in the eighth novel in this "consistently satisfying mystery series."*
Evans has found the most delightful shepherd's cottage. At the moment it's just four stone walls with gaping holes for doors and windows...but what a view! But as Evans attempts to seal the deal, duty calls. A five-year-old has vanished from a seaside caravan park--and Detective Constable Evans must consider all the suspects. There's the child's estranged father, who may want to spirit her back to his native Russia--and the German tourists in a hurry to flee the scene.Evans wonders if the abduction is related to the disappearance of another girl, twenty-five years ago--especially since that girl's relatives have just returned to Wales for a family reunion. Now, as he and his fiancee try to rebuild their dream house, he must also build a difficult case against a possible double murderer...
