Merrin McKenzie has returned to her hometown of St Ives, putting tragedy behind her. She has settled into a busy but peaceful life with a lovely cottage and some fulfilling pro bono legal work. New friendships, including with Chief Inspector Louis Peppiatt, are also beginning to blossom in the unfolding spring season.
When Merrin takes a call from Jane, a friend going through a messy divorce, Merrin wants to help in any way she can, which leads to her taking in Jane's teenage daughter, Emily. But then Emily disappears. When a ransom demand is made for the girl's safe return, matters take a distinctly sinister turn.
Can Merrin restore the shattered tranquillity of the stunning Cornish coastline?
Deborah Fowler's first short story was published when she was seventeen. Since then, she has published over six hundred short stories, novels, a crime series and several works of non-fiction.
Deborah lives in a small hamlet just outside St Ives and her St Ives Mysteries series are set against the beautiful backdrop of the West Cornish coastline.
