About this eBook

A woman goes missing – and for the detective, this time it's personal.

Criminologist Martin Knight lives a gilded life. But then his wife Liz disappears. There is no good explanation and Martin goes on the run.

To make things worse, Liz is the ex-girlfriend of DCI Craig Gillard who finds himself drawn into the investigation.

Is this a missing-person case or something more sinister? How dark can the truth be?

Utterly gripping and full of twists, this is a compulsive thriller from master Nick Louth for fans of Robert Bryndza, Patricia Gibney and Carole Wyer.

What an incredible book, I couldn't tear myself away from it I can't wait to read the next lot in the series. I now want to try to give all of his books a read. Absolutely fantastic read with such great twists. Found myself at the edge of my seat often. The characters are fantastic hooked by the first few pages. Nick Louth is an amazing author with fantastic detail to the story line a true page turner. A must read in my opinion!

Enjoyed the storyline, but constantly having to read the full names over and over. Then, it's just first names, as it should be. Get tired of reading the long names and titles filling the pages making me skip sentences.
