Publisher's summary
Gripping historical mystery from the best-selling author of The Stranger Diaries.
Three girls have left. None has come back.
Brighton, 1963. Edgar Stephens has been promoted to Superintendent and is married to his former sergeant, Emma Holmes. Edgar's wartime partner in arms, magician Max Mephisto, is a movie star in Hollywood while his daughter Ruby has her own TV show.
The funeral of an old friend highlights just how much the gang's lives have changed in the last nine years. Edgar is struggling with fresh responsibilities and the new swinging Brighton of rioting mods and rockers; Emma is chafing against the restrictions of life as a housewife.
Bob Willis, meanwhile, is tackling his biggest case since his promotion to DI: a schoolgirl missing from high-class boarding school Roedean. It looks like she's run away; but there are disturbing similarities to the disappearances of a young local nurse and a tearaway Modette, neither of who has been seen or heard from since....
A new world is dawning in Brighton, but the city's dark side is as dangerous as ever.
Critic reviews
"Griffiths writes with a smart, sharp eye and great elegance." (Peter James)
"A piquant mixture of humour, period detail...and truly beguiling characterisation." (Financial Times)
