Publisher's Summary

She lifted up her granddaughter from the cot, clutched her to her chest, and without looking at her beautiful daughter lying dead on the floor of her bedroom, ran from the house. Only when she was outside did she let a wail escape her lips, frightening the baby who joined in her screams.

When Isabel Gallagher is found murdered on the floor of her baby’s nursery by her mother, it’s a grueling case for Detective Lottie Parker. Isabel’s pajamas have been ripped, her throat cut and an old-fashioned razor blade placed in her hand. As Lottie looks at the round blue eyes and perfect chubby cheeks of Isabel’s baby daughter, she can’t understand who would want to hurt this innocent family.

That very same day she receives a call with devastating news. Another young mother, Joyce Breslin, has gone missing, and her four-year-old son, Evan, has been abducted from daycare. Lottie is sure that the missing mother and son are linked to Isabel’s death, and when she finds a bloody razor blade in their house, her worst fears are confirmed.

Desperate to find little Evan, Lottie leaves no stone unturned as she delves into Isabel and Joyce’s pasts, and when she realizes the two women have been meeting in secret, she knows she must find out why.

But when Joyce’s body is found in a murky pond and some little bones are found on a windy hillside, it feels as if this merciless killer will stop at nothing. The bones aren’t Evan’s, but can they give Lottie the final clue to find the innocent child before more lives are taken?

This absolutely gripping crime thriller from best-selling author Patricia Gibney will leave you gasping for breath.

Worth a listen

The whole story started so slowly with too many characters brought in too quickly, something that is frustrating when it’s an audiobook. The plot was interesting and once it got going it was hard to put down given the storyline. I found the final reveal/conversation weak given the story and it felt like it had been written in a rushed kind of “ well got finish now” attitude. Still worth 4/5.

Lottie has finally gotten her poop in a group! What a relief! Loved the story and I couldn't guess the ending. Another great Lottie Parker story.
