The stunning eleventh book in New York Times bestseller Ann Cleeves’ beloved Vera series, a hit in print and on television, explores the events surrounding the death of a young man secret network.
A local dog walker discovered the man’s body in a park outside Rosebank in the early morning sunshine. Rosebank is a home for troubled teenagers in the coastal village of Longwater. The victim was Josh, a staff member who was due to report to work the night before but never showed up.
DI Vera Stanhope is called in to investigate the death, and her only clue is that one of the residents of the house, fourteen-year-old Chloe Spence, has gone missing. Vera can’t bring herself to believe that a teenager is responsible for the murder, but even she can’t rule it out.
Vera, Joe and new team member Rosie Bell soon become involved in the case, and superstition and folklore begin to intersect when a second connected body is discovered near the Three Dark Wives memorial in the wilds of rural Northumberland. Facts conflict. Vera knows she must find Chloe to learn the truth, and the dark secrets in their community that may be more dangerous than she ever imagined.
