How can you catch a killer when everyone is lying?

When Detective Kim Stone is called to the crime scene, what she sees leaves her speechless and she knows she's up against a truly twisted killer.

But when she breaks the devastating news to the victim's wife, Kim can't help feeling that something isn't quite right about her reaction. Twenty-four hours later, the whole family has disappeared...

Then a second body is found staked to the ground in a local nature reserve. But what links them is a fiercely guarded secret... one that the police are helping to hide.

Faced with deceit from those she should be able to trust, Kim is in deep water like never before. Can she unlock the shocking truth and stop the killer before he strikes again?

An absolutely jaw-dropping crime thriller from the number one, multi-million-copy bestselling author of the incredibly addictive Detective Kim Stone series.
