Publisher's Summary

Paddy Meehan has just started work on the Scottish Daily News when a toddler is abducted. Two eleven-year-old boys are arrested for his murder and Paddy is shocked to discover that one of them is her fiance's cousin, Callum. When the boy's name is reported in the media, Paddy's family believe that she is to blame. Shunned by those closest to her, she finds herself dangerously alone.

Infused with Mina's unique blend of dark humour, personal insights, true crime, and the social injustices that pervade our society, this is a novel that will grip the reader while challenging our perceptions of childhood innocence, crime and punishment, right and wrong.

Gripping story crazy voices

I loved the story but it didn't seem to have a proper end. It felt as if it was merely an intro to the next book. I liked the narrators voice most of the time, but she seemed to trivialise key moments with a frankly comedic voice for to one of the main policemen. It felt as if she was trying to hard.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
