Publisher's summary

Ten years ago, 15-year-old Scarlett Rainsford vanished while on a family holiday in Greece. Lou Smith worked the case as a police constable, and failing to find Scarlett has been one of the biggest regrets of her career. No one is more shocked than Lou to learn that Scarlett has unexpectedly been found during a Special Branch raid of a brothel in Briarstone.

Lou and her Major Crime team are already stretched working two troubling cases: 19-year-old Ian Palmer was found badly beaten; and soon after, bar owner Carl McVey was found half-buried in the woods. While Lou tries to establish the links between the two cases, DS Sam Hollands works with Special Branch to question Scarlett. What happened to her? Where has she been until now? How did she end up back here? And why is her family - with the exception of her emotionally fragile younger sister, Juliette - less than enthusiastic about her return?

When another brutal assault and homicide are linked to the McVey murder, Lou's cases collide, and the clues all point in one terrifying direction. As the pressure and the danger mount, it becomes clear that the silent, secretive Scarlett holds the key to everything.

Contains mature themes.

Great Story

Provides a lot of insight into the horrors of human trafficking. Characters are very engaging and the storyline is taut. I look forward to more in this series.

Excellent story, excellent narration.

Elizabeth Haynes books always end too soon! This was an amazing read, and I look forward to more Lou Smith books - the sooner the better!!

Love this author

The narration was so good but I had to fast forward over some of the graphic violence. I'm very visual and can't take imagining all that violence. Also, the book had so many flashbacks, just when I was getting into a scene she (the author) moves to another time.
