Description

A dead woman is discovered washed up on a quiet stretch of England’s south coast, and within hours her traumatized three-year-old daughter is found alone miles away—setting off a case that refuses to stay simple. As investigators piece together the woman’s final hours, a web of suspects emerges, each with a plausible motive and a story that could explain the violence. With its tightly controlled pacing and forensic attention to human psychology, the novel explores how trauma, secrecy, and community pressure can distort truth. Minette Walters delivers a sharply plotted, suspenseful mystery that turns every assumption into a question—until the real pattern behind the crime begins to break open.
