A brutal killing. A message carved in blood. And a past that refuses to stay buried.

A man’s body is found hanging in his pretty country cottage. He’s been tortured — deep, surgical cuts criss-cross his torso and a single stab wound pierces his side.

Days later, a young mother and her toddler vanish without a trace. Their car is abandoned on a remote country road. No ransom demand. No witnesses. Just a grainy black-and-white photo left on a kitchen table and a note that simply says: Say nothing.

Blind ex-cop Naomi Blake is pulled into both cases. She knows they’re linked — but the clues are buried deep and the trail has gone cold.

Then a ghost from her past steps out of the shadows. Gregory. A man with a dangerous history who has crucial information about both the murder and kidnapping.

Someone has been watching and waiting. And now, they’re out for blood.

This utterly gripping crime mystery is perfect for fans of Ann Cleeves, Tana French and Val McDermid.
