In the quiet, remote landscape of the Cambridgeshire Fens, the past is never truly buried — and neither are its secrets.

Twenty-seven years ago.

The air is thick from a stifling heatwave when a small aircraft crashes into the dusty fenland landscape. A young woman emerges from the wreckage, clutching an infant to her chest.

Maggie and the baby are the only survivors.

Now.

Maggie is dying. And she has something to tell journalist Philip Dryden. She must put things right.

What Maggie tells him means that a crash has turned into a crime. An unsolved crime that will put them all in danger.

An unputdownable crime mystery, laced with dark secrets and a protagonist who is as flawed as he is determined, perfect for fans of Joy Ellis, Caro Ramsay, Ann Cleeves, Elly Griffiths, LJ Ross or Jack Cartwright.
