About this listen

 Does the past yield its secrets if we search hard enough? And where is the line between ordinary lust and something altogether murkier?

A marine biologist specialising in seahorses, Tina is returning for her brother's wedding to the Fenland village where she grew up. A moment of panic about her 10-year-old daughter triggers a vision of her best friend, Mandy Baker, who went missing without a trace at the same age three decades ago. And the more Tina replays events and relives her tempestuous upbringing, the more she believes she knows what happened to Mandy - and who was responsible.

Jill Dawson's affecting novel is an incisive and disturbing exploration of desire and childhood.

Critic Reviews

"Inspired by the Soham murders, this is one of the most perceptive novels you'll read on adolescent girls and the effect their budding sexuality has on themselves and men around them." (Marie Claire)
"Slow-burning, spine-crawling....It is a compelling, haunting, and intelligent read." (Daily Telegraph)
"An outstanding novel....Intense, intelligent, and compelling." (Daily Mail)
