What to expect

'A unique and fascinating thriller, full of twists and turns' Ruby Speechley

Sometimes you should let the past stay buried...

Thirty years ago, my mother disappeared on a charity hike in the US. It's been my life's mission to find out what happened to her.

The case has been cold for decades, but this morning I finally got a clue: an anonymous tip.

So I'm jumping on a plane, heading to the trail where she was last seen.

Because now I know people have been lying to me, and I'll finally get the answers I deserve...

...No matter how much danger that puts me in.

A pulse-raising thriller perfect for fans of Lucy Clarke and Louise Jensen
