'Sharp, assured . . . steeped in authenticity.' Sean Watkin, author of McDermid Award-shortlisted Black Water Rising

Your baby is perfect. She sleeps through the night, even in this heat. You'll keep her cool. Open the window. Anything she needs.
Anything.
But when you wake up in the morning, Bella is gone.

Recently-promoted DI Martha Allen is furious. Her career hinges on this missing baby case, and her boss and the circling media both want a quick solve - but her key witness is lying.
Allen needs the truth. She's not going to stop until she gets it. No matter how long it takes.

That detective is watching you.
What have you done? What happened to your baby?

' Missing grips from start to finish, with a shocking finale you'll never see coming.' Margot Douaihy, author of Scorched Grace
'Had me hooked immediately.' Georgina Clarke, author of The Corpse Played Dead

Nichola Walker tells this story with such supreme calmness and convincing tone that no one could possibly predict the outcome. An outstanding “grown up” police procedural with teeth.

Humans are complicated, and this story highlights their complexities beautifully

This novel has everything I look for in a crime drama - the writing and character development is excellent. The story line was complex but engaging - it had me guessing to the end. And it obviously had the very best narration. Couldn’t stop listening but also didn’t want it to end ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Lots of twists and turns - narration is perfection
