About this title

Synopsis

"A taut, shattering, mesmerizing page-turner that definitely kicks this series up several notches" - Booklist Starred Review

When a baby is stolen from outside a shop, detectives Anderson and Costello find evidence of a shocking conspiracy

When a six-week-old baby is stolen from outside a village shop, Detective Inspector Costello quickly surmises there's more to this case than meets the eye. As she questions those involved, she uncovers evidence that this was no impulsive act as the police initially assumed, but something cold, logical, meticulously planned. Who has taken Baby Sholto, and why?

Colin Anderson meanwhile is on the Cold Case Unit, reviewing the unsolved rape of a young mother back in 1996. Convinced this wasn't the first, or last - time the attacker struck, Anderson looks for a pattern. But when he does find a connection, it reaches back into his own past . . .
