Detective Kelly Porter takes on the dangerous job of exposing the dark underworld of a small tourist town in this fast-paced thriller.

After a scandal forces Detective Inspector Kelly Porter out of London's Metropolitan Police, she returns to her home turf in the Lake District. There, she begins work on a cold case that shocked the local community and on an investigation of two seemingly straightforward crimes. But evidence comes to light that reveals a web of shocking criminal activity. Behind the veneer of sleepy, touristy towns lies a dark and dangerous underworld. As Kelly threatens to expose those involved, she risks paying the ultimate price for the truth.

This taut and gripping debut from a crime writer to watch is perfect for fans of Carol Wyer, Patricia Gibney, and Angela Marsons.
