What to expect
A killer at large in a remote Basque Country valley , a detective to rival Sarah Lund, myth versus reality, masterful storytelling – the Spanish bestseller that has taken Europe by storm.
Shortlisted for the CWA International Dagger
The body of a teenage girl has been found on the banks of the River Baztán – the second in a month. Soon rumours are flying in the village of Elizondo. Is this the work of a serial killer, or something even more sinister?
Inspector Amaia Salazar leads the investigation, returning to the Basque country where she was born. Shrouded in mist and surrounded by forest, it conceals a terrible secret from Amaia’s childhood that has come back to haunt her.
Facing the superstitions of the village, Amaia must fight the demons of her past in order to catch the killer. But what is the dark presence she senses lurking in the shadows?
Critics Review
‘Myth and reality blend in this sophisticated and razor-sharp thriller … gritty, fascinating and compelling’ Steve Berry
n‘Combines singular characters and an eerily atmospheric setting’ Sunday Times
nthis is a well-written book for those eager to explore a little-known area of Spain, and should appeal to fans of Fred Vargas and James Oswald. The supernatural elements are handled with a light touch, and shouldn’t put off more cynical readers, Crime Fiction Lover
nAn intriguing read – compelling and often dark’ Liz Loves Books blog
n‘Well-written and engaging’ Raven Crime Reads blog
n‘Has so many facets to it that it becomes utterly compelling’
Publishing Perspectives
‘An engrossing psychological thriller’ Publishers Weekly
n‘Exciting … the level of sustained uncertainty is magnificently realized’ Library Journal
