Merrin McKenzie has returned to St Ives, leaving past tragedy behind for a quieter life. She has her lovely cottage, fulfilling pro bono legal work, and new friendships, including with Chief Inspector Louis Peppiatt. But peace proves fragile. She offers refuge to Emily, the teenage daughter of a friend caught in a bitter divorce, but then the girl suddenly vanishes. A chilling ransom demand follows, shattering the calm of the Cornish coast.
As suspicion deepens and time runs short, Merrin must untangle a web of secrets - before the tranquillity she's rebuilt is lost for good.
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.
