L'affaire paraissait insoluble à l'époque : une riche héritière et son fils kidnappés en Ecosse, une remise de rançon catastrophique aboutissant à la mort de la femme et à la disparition de l'enfant. Malgré l'indice découvert vingt-cinq ans plus tard, Karen Pirie, l'experte en cold cases en charge du dossier, a donc peu d'espoirs de résoudre la célèbre énigme. Une autre affaire classée occupe déjà l'esprit de la détective : en 1984, au plus fort de la grève des mineurs qui divisait le Royaume-Uni, un gréviste avait disparu sans laisser de traces, abandonnant les siens. Mais de nouveaux éléments suggèrent qu'il ne s'agissait pas d'une simple désertion. A mesure que les enquêtes avancent, Karen va de révélation en révélation et s'enfonce toujours plus loin dans les labyrinthes du mystère... La reine incontestée du thriller psychologique joue avec nos nerfs dans un suspense démoniaque.
Bailey Weggins is in desperate need of a little R and R after solving the murder of her boss' nanny.
