‘Lynda La Plante practically invented the thriller’ KARIN SLAUGHTER
The seventh book in the riveting DI Anna Travis series from the Sunday Times bestselling creator of Jane Tennison.
Under the watchful eye of Detective Chief Superintendent James Langton, Anna is given her first case.
But is it a full-blown murder investigation or purely a missing person's case? An ominous pool of blood and no victim lead Anna on a desperate hunt for a man who has disappeared without trace.
As Anna becomes obsessed with seemingly irrelevant details, Langton fears that she is losing control of the case. They still have no body and Anna is under increasing pressure to make an arrest . . .
