Description
One by one the girls disappeared…
When the frail body of a teenage girl is discovered strangled in a parking lot, shards of ice form in Detective Natalie Ward’s veins. As Natalie looks at the freckles scattered on her cheeks and the pale pink lips tinged with blue, she remembers that this innocent girl is somebody’s daughter…
The girl is identified as missing teenager Amelia Saunders, who has run away from home and her controlling father. Natalie’s heart sinks further when it becomes clear that Amelia has been working on the streets, manipulated by her violent new boyfriend Tommy.
A day later, another vulnerable girl is found strangled on a park bench. Like Amelia, Katie Bray was a runaway with connections to Tommy, and Natalie is determined to find him and track down the monster attacking these scared and lonely girls.
But when a wealthy young woman is found murdered the next morning, the word ‘guilty’ scrawled on her forehead, Natalie realises that the case is more complex than she first thought. Determined to establish a connection between her three victims, Natalie wastes no time in chasing down the evidence, tracing everyone who crossed their paths. Then, a key suspect’s body turns up in the canal, a mole in Natalie’s department leaks vital information and everything seems to be against her. Can Natalie stop this clever and manipulative killer before they strike again?
An unputdownable crime thriller from an Amazon bestselling author that will have you sleeping with the light on. This gripping rollercoaster ride is perfect for fans of Angela Marsons, Rachel Abbott and Rachel Caine. Prepare to be totally hooked!

This series just keeps getting better and better. A wonderful addition! Natalie has taken a promotion and is helping Lucy do her role. She is living with Mike. People are dying. Two young women on the game. Then a number of well known local identities. But how they can all be connected? This story kept me guessing all the way.
I already looking forward to the next book!

This is Carol Wyers 7th book featuring Detective Natalie and and it's a cracker! Natalie has been promoted to DCI and Lucy, one of Natalies team is now DI. The case begins with the discovery of a young girls body and intensifies quickly. DI Lucy Carmichael can't help thinking she's not ready to solve this horrific crime. With Natalies guidance and support she keeps going. I like Lucy and was pleased to learn more about her. It was nice to see Natalie happy and settled with Mike after all she's been through.
This was a fantastic read and I literally couldn't put my Kindle down.
Thanks to NetGalley and the author for the opportunity to read this amazing book.
