Publisher's Summary

One victim. One murderer. Which of them is guilty?

A man is found dead on a beach on a small island off the coast of Germany. The gruesome discovery rocks the close-knit community of Amrum: in a town where nothing stays secret for long, who among them has a motive for murder?

DI Lena Lorenzen is brought in to investigate. For her, it is an unwelcome homecoming to the isolated island she turned her back on fourteen years ago. But now her past - and the island’s - is catching up with her. As her investigation leads her to a children’s home, where rumours of abuse by the murder victim are rife, she learns that the town she thought she knew housed secrets darker than nightmares.

When it becomes clear that this is just the beginning, Lorenzen is faced with an unenviable task: in a case where the victims have blood on their hands, can she bring the true criminal to justice?

Narration

I can't even finish this book the narration for me does nothing but hinder my enjoyment of what is possibly a good book. I endured till cheaper 7 to try and adjust to the narration however I now give up. The narration of a book is the only reason I ever feel the need to exchange or credit a book also buyer beware book can't be returned and possibly not exchanged so have a good listen before you purchase or avoid u d and buy the actual book.

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