'The police belonged to another world - the world they saw on the television or in the papers. Not theirs.'
When two eighteen-year-old girls go missing on their gap year in Thailand, their families are thrust into the international spotlight: desperate, bereft and frantic with worry.
Journalist Kate Waters always does everything she can to be first to the story, first with the exclusive, first to discover the truth - and this time is no exception.

And as the case of the missing girls unfolds, they will all find that even this far away, danger can lie closer to home than you might think . . .
