โWill suck you in from the first pageโย Stephen Booth, author ofย Fall Down Dead
In a small northern town, girls are disappearing.
You wonโt see it in the papers and the police arenโt taking any notice, but the clues are there if you know where to look.
Becca sees that something is wrong, but sheโs been labelled โdifficultโ thanks to her troubled past. So when a girl is so savagely beaten she canโt be identified, and Becca claims she knows who she is, no one will believe her.
With the police refusing to listen, Becca digs for evidence that will prove what she is saying. But her search for justice will put herself and those closest to her in danger โ and once she finds the truth, will anyone even listen?
