In the summer of 1984, moms in a tiny Dublin neighborhood start calling their kids home as evening draws near. However, three kids disappear from the quiet, dark woods on this warm evening. Only one of the kids is there when the cops get there. He has blood on his shoes, is clutching a tree stump in fear, and can't remember a single thing from the last several hours.
Twenty years later, Rob Ryan—the youngster who was found—works as a detective on the Dublin Murder Squad and doesn't discuss his background. But when a 12-year-old girl is found murdered in the same woods, he and Detective Cassie Maddox (his partner and closest friend) find themselves investigating a case chillingly similar to the previous unsolved mystery. With only fragments of long-forgotten memories to lead him, Ryan now has the opportunity to solve the mystery surrounding the case at hand as well as his own murky history.
A stunningly written book that introduces readers to a startling new psychological suspense author.
