Synopsis
A tense and powerful police procedural set in the city of Durham where a murdered preacher may be more monstrous than his own killer.
There's the lost.
There's the missing.
And there's the taken.
She asked me once if we had any secrets, and I shook my head.
"No secrets between us," she said.
"No," I answered. "Never ever."
In a Durham hotel at dawn, celebrated preacher Tristan Snow is murdered as he prays. None of the other guests - not even his daughter, his wife, or her sister - saw or heard anything.
But then again, they all had a motive for murder.
Detective Inspector Erica Martin is confronted by secrets and lies, lost in a case where nothing is what it seems.
With no answers, DI Martin is consumed by questions: Is anyone in this family innocent? When the victim might have been a monster - is there such a thing as justice? And does anyone deserve to die?
