Description

MEET DETECTIVE RUTHERFORD BARNES IN THIS BRILLIANT BRITISH CRIME SERIES FROM A SERVING POLICE OFFICER, PACKED FULL OF TWISTS.

Barnes finally has the family he always longed for. But someone is coming for them . . .

Detective Barnes crouches down by the body near the seafront. Male, mid-twenties. The face is blue-white, mouth stretched open in a silent yawn.

Suddenly his eye is caught by an abrupt movement. A woman has fallen over on the pavement opposite. 'Looks like someone's feeling crook, ' says Howlett, his detective constable.

Then Barnes sees another person collapse nearby. A young man, fit. He hasn't tripped. His body starts to convulse on the ground.

As panic spreads through the crowd, Barnes's mobile rings. It's Tamsin, his normally unflappable partner.

'Barnes . . .' She sounds frantic. 'It's . . . it's Maggie.'

Barnes goes cold. 'What about her?'

'She was supposed to be at rugby practice. But she never showed up. She's . . . she's missing.'

His stepdaughter is missing - and Barnes has a very bad feeling about who might be responsible . . .

Perfect for fans of Joy Ellis, Helen H. Durrant, Peter James, Angela Marsons, Rachel McLean, J.D. Kirk or J.M. Dalgliesh.
