Description

When Hadiyyah disappears from her new life in Italy, her father, Taymullah Azhar, is devastated—and Detective Sergeant Barbara Havers is determined to help him find his daughter. Their fragile hope is shattered when Hadiyyah’s mother, Angela, returns to England and accuses Taymullah of kidnapping the child, setting off a complex investigation that crosses borders and tests loyalties. As Havers pursues the truth, she confronts questions of parental love, cultural difference, justice, and the lengths people will go to protect those they cherish. The eighteenth entry in the Thomas Lynley series places Havers at the center of a tense, emotionally charged mystery marked by Elizabeth George’s nuanced character work and intricate plotting.
