Description

The fifth instalment in the internationally bestselling series, with over a million copies sold to date!

Every time you hear his voice, another child will die.

DCI Robert Kett's family may be whole again, but he is a broken man.

Suspended from duty, he takes his girls out of the city for a much-needed holiday on the Norfolk Coast.

Instead of the peace he desperately needs, however, Kett finds a community in chaos. Four teenagers are missing, and time is running out before they meet a horrific fate.

Kett must follow a deadly trail of clues left by the man who took them, the only person who knows where they are.

There's only one problem.

The kidnapper is already dead.

The most gripping instalment yet in one of the hottest new crime series of the year, perfect for fans of JD Kirk, LJ Ross, David J Gatward, Simon McCleave, J M Dalgliesh, Val McDermid and Ian Rankin.

Alex Smith wrote his first book when he was six. It wasn't particularly good, but it did have some supernatural monsters in it. His latest books, the DCI Robert Kett thrillers, have monsters in them too, although these monsters are very human, and all the more terrifying for it. In between, he has published fourteen novels for children and teenagers under his full name, Alexander Gordon Smith -- including the number one bestselling series Escape From Furnace, which is loved by millions of readers worldwide and which is soon to become a motion picture. He lives in Norwich with his wife and three young daughters.
