When a man fails in his attempt to murder his wife and then commit suicide, DC Maggie Neville is assigned as the surviving woman's FLO. As the husband lies in a coma in hospital, the wife sets about making sure everyone knows he's guilty. But there's something about her story that doesn't ring true to Maggie. Digging deeper, she finds an unexpected link between the couple's case and a series of burglaries she and her colleagues are investigating in the local area - and the mysterious disappearance of a young woman twenty years ago.
A full-bodied police procedural thriller from start to finish - with a whirlwind plot and sensational sub stories, it's a real binge-read kind of book -- Stylist, Book Wars
