Crimson Lake is where bad people come to disappear - and
where eight-year-old boys vanish into thin air . . .
On the fifth floor of the White Caps Hotel, four young
friends are left alone while their parents dine downstairs.
But when Sara Farrow checks on the children at midnight, her
son is missing. The boys swear they stayed in their room,
and CCTV confirms Richie has not left the building. Despite
a thorough search, no trace of the child is found.
Distrustful of the police, Sara turns to Crimson Lake’s
unlikeliest private investigators: disgraced cop Ted
Conkaffey and convicted killer Amanda Pharrell. This
case is just the sort of twisted puzzle that gets Amanda’s
blood pumping.
For Ted, the case couldn’t have come at a worse time. Two
years ago a false accusation robbed him of his career, his
reputation and most importantly his family. But now Lillian,
the daughter he barely knows, is coming to stay in his
ramshackle cottage by the lake.
Ted must dredge up the area’s worst characters to find a
missing child. And the kind of danger he uncovers could well
put his own in deadly peril . . .
