An abandoned Southwark warehouse burns next door to a womenβs shelter for victims of spousal abuse. Within it lies the charred corpse of a woman burned beyond all recognition. At the same time, workers at Guyβs Hospital anxiously discuss the disappearance of a hospital administrator β a beautiful, emotionally fragile young woman whoβs vanished without a trace.
And in an old, dark, rambling London house, nine-year-old Harrietβs awful fears wonβt be silenced - as she worries about her feuding parents, her schoolworkβ¦and the strange woman who is her only companion in this scary, unfamiliar place.
Gemma James and Duncan Kincaid β lovers and former partners β have their own pressing concerns. But they must put aside private matters to investigate these disturbing cases. Yet neither Gemma nor Duncan realize how closely these cases are connected β or how important their resolutions will be for an abducted young child who is frightened, alone β¦and in serious peril.
