Flighty young mother Rianna disappears. Did she have an accident on her cliff-top run, or did someone want her dead?
There’s no shortage of suspects: her blackmail victims; the men she beguiled; the women who loved them; the father of Rianna’s baby, Meg.
Neighbourhood Sergeant Alys Carey is thrown together with Detective Inspector Matt Vincent when he returns to Pembrokeshire and takes on the case. Alys had a schoolgirl crush on Matt and followed him everywhere. He remembers her as “The Pest”.
Can Alys and Matt unravel the complex web of relationships within the local community and ensure justice prevails? Will Matt’s embittered detective sergeant, Beth Francis, derail the investigation? And what will become of little Meg?
