Publisher's Summary

Ten years ago, 15-year-old Scarlett Rainsford vanished while on a family holiday in Greece. Lou Smith worked the case as a police constable, and failing to find Scarlett has been one of the biggest regrets of her career. No one is more shocked than Lou to learn that Scarlett has unexpectedly been found during a Special Branch raid of a brothel in Briarstone.

Lou and her Major Crime team are already stretched working two troubling cases: 19-year-old Ian Palmer was found badly beaten; and soon after, bar owner Carl McVey was found half-buried in the woods. While Lou tries to establish the links between the two cases, DS Sam Hollands works with Special Branch to question Scarlett. What happened to her? Where has she been until now? How did she end up back here? And why is her family - with the exception of her emotionally fragile younger sister, Juliette - less than enthusiastic about her return?

When another brutal assault and homicide are linked to the McVey murder, Lou's cases collide, and the clues all point in one terrifying direction. As the pressure and the danger mount, it becomes clear that the silent, secretive Scarlett holds the key to everything.

Contains mature themes.

Intriguing, police drama.

An English teenage girl is abducted in a Greek resort after sneaking out of apartment to meet a local boy. No trace of her was found .DC. Louisa Smith was part of the original investigation, and now , 10 years later she is DCI. The young woman, now 25, is found during a local raid.Her name is Scarlet Rainsford who was kidnapped in Greece. Now DCI Louisa is heading the investigation into Scarlett’s disappearance, and now reappearance. Scarlett’s parents don’t seem exactly overjoyed to see their long lost daughter, nor does she really want to reunite with them. The parents didn’t share all information they knew with police, then or now. The mystery does not stop with Scarlets reappearance, nor her mysterious, cold parents. Intriguing, exciting , twists and turns throughout listen. Policing details, such as reading out report numbers, DOBs etc. did not detract from story for me. They added authenticity to an exceptional police procedural. Looking for other works by this author.
