description
A gruesome discovery. A secret long buried. The past uncovered.
When Detective Inspector Solomon Gray is called to a quiet residential property what he discovers is truly shocking – the mummified body of a new-born baby. The tiny corpse, hidden inside a cardboard box at the back of a wardrobe, is only found after the death of the homeowner, Andrea Ogilvy.
Until a few years ago Ogilvy was a foster carer for the local council, looking after hundreds of children during her career. But something made her give up her role. But what? Nobody truly knows.
DNA analysis on the child leads Gray to three women; one of which may be the abandoned baby’s mother. As Gray digs deeper he uncovers painful family secrets and a multitude of lies. It seems vulnerable young women were being exploited by a man in a position of power. But who helped them cover everything up? And why?
And someone is setting a dog onto teenagers – criminals early in their careers. Seemingly a vigilante is operating, doing what the police won’t. And, as usual, Gray’s complex personal life interferes with his job.
Who is the baby? Why was it hidden? What lives will be shattered by Gray’s investigation?
Set in the once grand town of Margate in the south of England the now broken and depressed seaside resort becomes its own character in this police suspense thriller, perfect for fans of Ian Rankin, Stuart MacBride and Peter James.
Genre: Mystery/Thriller
