What to expect

*Contains an exclusive Adam Fawley short story*

From the Sunday Times bestselling author of the Tiktok sensation MURDER IN THE FAMILY and the DI Adam Fawley series comes a brand new gripping crime thriller about a figure from the past…

You thought she was dead.

She fooled you once.

Will she fool you again?

In 2016, eight-year-old Daisy Mason vanished.

Her mother was convicted of her murder. But her body was never found.

Now, evidence at a current murder scene calls the whole case into question. DCI Adam Fawley and the team are brought back to investigate. And they all have one question on their minds.

What really happened to Daisy Mason?
