Meet your next favourite Scottish detectives: DI Colin Anderson and DS Winifred ‘Freddie’ Costello.
Roberta’s six-week-old hasn’t been sleeping all week. He finally drops off in the car. She nips into the shop. She’ll be 30 seconds, max.
But when Roberta returns, the unthinkable has happened.
Her baby is gone.
But he’s not only gone, he’s been replaced. With someone else’s baby.
DCI Anderson and DI Costello are on the case. But then a five-week-old goes missing from her mum’s tiny flat. And it looks like she never even lived there. Plus, her mother is nowhere to be found . . .
AN ELECTRIFYING SCOTTISH THRILLER WITH A HEART-STOPPING FINALE.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “Another cracker from Caro Ramsay. Complex, heartbreaking and funny. A rollercoaster of emotions neatly wrapped up in a crime novel.” T.T
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “The best of Caro’s books so far — and I have loved every one of them. A must-read, gripping story.” A reader in the UK
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “This is a dark, tense and compelling read with a gripping and suspenseful narrative.” Paromjit
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “The characters are brilliant and the unveiling of the plot ensured that I was hooked (just loved Wyngate and Mulholland).” Margaret
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “This is a must-read for anyone who enjoys a good mystery. Thank you to Caro Ramsay for a wonderful adventure.” Alanna
“A masterly pair of Glasgow sleuths tackle two cases that become one.” Kirkus
“Ramsay gracefully braids together the two investigations . . . Fans of contemporary British police procedurals will be more than satisfied.” Publisher’s Weekly
“A taut, shattering, mesmerizing page-turner.” Booklist
“With half a dozen or more intersecting storylines happening at any one point, this novel is absolutely tantalizing with its story . . . This is definitely one of those plots that will keep you turning pages, desperate to know how it all turns out.” thecrimereview.com
THE DETECTIVES
DI Colin Anderson: A well-qualified graduate with true Scottish grit. He’s calm, efficient and focused — despite his marriage falling apart, and the fact that he’s just a tiny bit in love with the boss’s wife.
DS Winifred “Freddie” Costello: Pithy, sometimes crabbit (as they say in Glasgow), Costello is incredibly capable, but not above pushing boundaries when needed. She’s a well-respected officer who always puts police work first. She’s had a crush on DCI McAlpine for many years now, but that doesn’t stop her getting the job done.
THE SETTING
Drizzly, grey Glasgow and its seedy backstreets along with up-and-coming new estates is the setting for this gritty series. The realities of poverty and crime are laid bare — with the underfunded police department trying to keep the damn from breaking.
