But will Kesey find Lottie before it’s too late? It’s every parent’s worst nightmare. The greater the evil, the deadlier the game.

But when DI Laura Kesey introduces Sally to a new social worker, she finds hope at a local women’s domestic violence refuge, where she’s surrounded by women just like her. But then a man is mowed down in a hit and run. Soon a second suspicious death follows. Both deaths link back to the refuge. Has Sally found a safe place or a new danger?

Death has come twice to Ravenbank, a remote community in England’s Lake District, each time on Halloween. Just before the First World War, a young woman’s corpse was found, with a makeshift shroud frozen to her battered face. Her ghost - the Faceless Woman - is said to walk through Ravenbank on Halloween. Five years ago, another woman, Shenagh Moss, was murdered, and again her face was covered to hide her injuries.
