An edge-of-your-seat story with fantastic female leads from an exciting new voice in crime-writing
A girl covered in blood. A missing man. A cryptic fairy tale.
Detective Laura Shaw seems to have it all- a supportive husband, a happy two-year-old and a great career. She is her team's top interviewer, brilliant at coaxing victims to open up.
Then, she meets Jenny - a 14-year-old assault victim - and the fa ade crumbles. Jenny's stepfather is missing, the blood on her clothes is not her own and Laura can't interpret the fairy tale she keeps repeating.
But Jenny isn't the only one with secrets. With every hour that passes, Laura loses more of her grip, grappling with the biggest question of all-
Is every life worth saving?
