FROM THE CRIME WRITER LONGLISTED FOR THE MAN BOOKER PRIZE 2018
The eight-year-old boy had vanished from the car and - as if by slick, sick magic - had been replaced by a note on the steering wheel:
You don't love him
At the height of summer a dark shadow falls across Exmoor. Children are being stolen.
There are no explanations, no ransom demands...and no hope.
Policeman Jonas Holly faces a precarious journey into the warped mind of the kidnapper if he is to find them. But there are some who would say that Jonas is the last man to entrust with this job...

Reviews
-
"Surprise, of course, is the most potent aspect of suspense. And Belinda Bauer knows exactly how to manipulate that element, right until the very end. What's more, she's shown, not just how to keep surprise bubbling explosively away, but to do it with extraordinary dexterity, maturity and feeling"
HENRY SUTTON, Daily Mirror
-
"Bauer takes astonishing risks but - like a brilliant ski-jumper - arcs down to the perfect landing"
Independent
-
"Compelling... Bauer blends a psychological crime story with a darkly humorous narrative... I can't wait for the next one!"
Bookseller (Booksellers' Choice)
-
"Belinda Bauer's third book represents a remarkable achievement: almost a return to the good old Victorian triple-decker novel of suspense, but created with a deftness that allows each book to stand alone."
Independent
-
"She's a thriller queen... The woman most likely to lead the fightback against the Scandinavian crime-wave"
Sunday Times (Culture)
