'Lynda La Plante practically invented the thriller' KARIN SLAUGHTER
The eighth book in the riveting DI Anna Travis series from the Sunday Times bestselling creator of Jane Tennison.
A suspect. An arrest. A confession. A case done and dusted . . .?
Five years ago a 13-year-old girl disappeared in broad daylight on a busy street. DCS James Langton headed the investigation; the case was never closed. It has haunted him ever since.
And now comes another confession, to this murder, and to one more besides. Too good to be true? DCI Anna Travis, pulled into the fray, isn't so sure that they have their man. Then the suspect changes his story . . .
