Publisher's Summary
Matilda Darke is back….
April 2020: Lockdown
With street crime at an all-time low, Matilda and her team finally find the time to dig into their backlog of cold cases.
DI Brady has been tracing victims of systemic abuse at a local children’s home after a high-profile accusation pitched it into the spotlight—a case that couldn’t be more personal.
Nothing could have prepared them for what they uncover next….
As they piece together the disturbing picture of the history of the home, it soon becomes clear that this is much bigger than either of them ever suspected.
When they find the body of a former staff member in a supermarket car park, Matilda realises her days on the force could be numbered.
The Lost Children is an utterly gripping crime thriller weaving a breakneck tale of a vast network of secrets and lies, a relentless detective determined to sabotage it, and a murder that shatters two decades of silence.
What the critics say
"A tense, nail-biting story with a truly twisted ending." (Katerina Diamond)
“An established master of the serial killer novel takes us on another dangerous journey through the streets of Sheffield. Watch out for those twists—you won't see them coming!” (Stephen Booth)
"A gritty and atmospheric thriller with more twists and turns than a hangman's knot. I loved it." (Matt Hilton)
