About this listen
'A twisty tale . . . shocking, but beautifully written' Belfast Telegraph
CAN YOU EVER ESCAPE THE PAST?
When Heather Pethick is found dead at the wheel of her car on a Birmingham back street, DCI Robin Lyons is immediately called to investigate. The single knife wound to Heather's throat leaves little room for doubt: she was murdered.
Robin initially suspects that the cold-blooded killing is a result of organized crime, especially when she learns that Heather lived on a farm with access to secluded coves on the Cornish coastline, ideal for trafficking.
But when another woman goes missing - someone with whom Heather had a fraught exchange just hours before she died - Robin realises that there's more to the story.
Can Robin find the killer before they strike again? And how much will she sacrifice to get to the truth?
