SOME MEMORIES ARE BURIED FOR A REASON... The compulsively readable new thriller by the #1 bestselling and award-winning master of crime

The most painful of Evie Cormac's memories have been locked away since she was held prisoner as a child - an angel-faced urchin whose rescue captured hearts and headlines.

Forensic psychologist Cyrus Haven has made it his mission to guide Evie back to something approaching normality. But he knows that will only happen if they can find the missing pieces of her complex and haunting jigsaw-puzzle past.

Now, on an English beach, Evie's nightmares come roaring back at her. Seventeen bodies wash up on the shore - with only one survivor, and two women still missing. Whatever happened to Evie all those years ago lies at the evil heart of this new tragedy. Because these deaths are no accident. The same dark forces are still at work, reaching out, dragging her back into the eye of the storm.

This time, Evie can call upon Cyrus's unique skills - and her own. But will that be enough to save them And who will end up paying for the past
