The close knit mining village had its own ideas about what happened, but the police pinned it on a known child killer who subsequently committed suicide. Now Burrthorpe comes to police attention again. A man's body is discovered down a mine shaft and it's clear he has been murdered. Dalziel and Pascoe's investigation takes them to the heart of a frightened and hostile community. But could the key to the present day investigation lie in the past when little Tracey vanished into thin air? By crime author Reginald Hill (1936-2012).
