A young local student
has apparently committed suicide. Her body is found in an abandoned car
on a lonely country road. She didn't own a car. Didn't even drive. How
did she get there? Where did she die? Who moved her, and why?
Meanwhile
a man in his sixties is found dead in a gully up on the wild moorland.
He is wearing an expensive suit and carrying no identification.
Post-mortem findings indicate he died from injuries sustained during the
fall. But what was he doing up there? And why are there no signs of a
car in the vicinity?
As the inconsistencies multiply and the
mysteries proliferate, Annie's father's new partner, Zelda, comes up
with a shocking piece of information that alerts Banks and Annie to the
return of an old enemy in a new guise. This is someone who will stop at
nothing, not even murder, to get what he wants - and suddenly the stakes
are raised and the hunt is on.
