It's been a long time since the Hardwicke family has been on
holiday. But thirteen-year-old Galen has wanted to see the
wild dolphins at Scotland's Chanonry Point for as long as she
can remember, and her mother Christine - a lone parent since
her beloved husband left - is determined she gets her wish.
But their serene trip is about to be interrupted.
When DC Saul Anguish is called to investigate the shooting of
an ex-police officer in Midtown-on-Sea, Essex, he quickly
discovers that this is the first in a string of killings by Missy
and Fox, a damaged young couple hell-bent on infamy, their
love story etched in blood. In pursuit, Saul follows their trail
north.
The paths of the Hardwickes' and the deadly couple are
about to collide. When Saul and his forensic linguist partner,
Blue, arrive on the scene, they witness the unthinkable: a
mother forced to make an impossible choice.
Saul must uncover the truth about the couple. But can he
find the strength to lay the ghosts of his past to rest before
they break him?
