Erin was a good girl. But someone wanted her dead...

'I love all Mel Sherratt's books' IAN RANKIN

'An absolute masterpiece' ANGELA MARSONS

'Twists and turns and delivers a satisfying shot of tension' RACHEL ABBOTT

When sixteen-year-old Erin Ellis is attacked, she dies in the arms of her best friend Molly, just metres from her home. Molly is the surviving girl but says she easily could have been the victim - it was a random mugging gone wrong.

With inconclusive evidence, DS Grace Allendale must dig deep within the tight-knit Stoke community for leads. And she soon finds that someone had a motive to kill Erin.

As the investigation unfolds, Grace is reminded of a horrifying case she worked on earlier in her career.

Is the past coming back to haunt her? And can she push through her fear to catch Erin's killer before it's too late?

** The million-copy bestseller Mel Sherratt is back with her most gripping and gritty novel yet! **
