Can DS Karen Hart rely on the word of a little girl to save the life of a woman in grave danger?

When a woman is abducted from a quiet suburban street and bundled into the back of a white van, the only witness to the crime is a child with a reputation for telling tall tales.

The police doubt the girl’s story, except for Detective Karen Hart, who is determined to follow her instincts—perhaps because the shy little girl reminds her of the daughter she’s still grieving.

When a playing card is found at the scene, Karen finds her first clue. And when a second card is found at the home of a missing woman, Tamara, Karen finds her victim. But before the team can catch their breath, another woman linked to Tamara is snatched. And then a body turns up in a farmer’s field.

With the crimes having escalated from kidnap to murder, Karen must unlock the killer’s calling-card code before any more victims are taken. But getting to the truth isn’t going to be easy when Tamara’s family has so much to hide...

Critics' reviews

“A 'must' for dedicated fans of police procedural murder mysteries…deftly and effectively narrated by professional voice actor Henrietta Meire. Offering a compelling 'theatre of the mind' experience for the listener from beginning to end…unreservedly recommended.”—Midwest Book Review

All stars

Good book and story, a lot of tension is built up and one wonders for a long time which storyline to follow, although the group of potential suspects is not that big. Time passes quickly and Henrietta Meire is just impeccable as always. BUT: the end and the whodunnit are almost the low point as the underlying driver for what’s happening is so stupidly naive that it is almost unbelievable. However, everything before the end is so good that the 5 stars are still justified.

Overall 5 stars
