Description:Blonde hair so bright it almost glows. Eyes
wide – green, like her father’s. She thought she had her whole life
ahead of her. Will she ever see her family again?
When bright, beautiful Penny O’Dwyer
disappears from Cahirsiveen, a small town in the west of Ireland, the
local police scour the narrow streets and muddy hills, but find no
leads.
Jessie Boyle
swore she’d never return to Ireland. But grieving the death of her
partner, and the premature end of her London Met career, she can’t say
no to the case that holds her homeland in its grip. And it’s not long
before Jessie uncovers something everyone else has missed: Penny isn’t
the first girl to go missing.
Going back decades, women have been
taken from Cahirsiveen, their bodies found on ancient burial mounds. A
reference to a little-known Celtic myth buried in her messages convinces
Jessie that Penny is the latest victim of the same killer. Folklore can
do funny things to a small community in the misty mountains, and Jessie
suspects she’s dealing with the most twisted mind of her career.
The
eyes of Ireland are on Jessie and her new team, and as the boss turns
up the heat, they learn to live and breathe the case. But Jessie is
haunted by her own demons, and the cracks are beginning to show.
Time
is running out. And just when Jessie thinks she’s found a vital clue
linking the victims to a remote farm, she realises she could be next.
Can she piece together the face of evil and save Penny’s life, or will
he get to Jessie first?
An
absolutely unputdownable mystery thriller with a detective who will stop
at nothing to find justice. Perfect for fans of LJ Ross, Lisa Gardner
and Robert Dugoni.
