Alice Quentin is brought in to help the traumatised child uncover his memories - which might lead them to his mother's captors. But she swiftly realises Clare is not the first victim... nor will she be the last.

Recenzii
Excellent...based on a true, fascinating and shocking story
An original and exciting story made all the more disturbing by the fact that the underlying premise is based on real events. An excellent read.
Rhodes goes from strength to strength with this acute reminder of how bureaucratic neglect produced mass tragedy. A fast-paced, riveting read.
A pacy, finely crafted plot, and the central idea of tainted blood is fantastically well threaded into the story. More than anything, it is written with heart
The pace never lets up in Kate Rhodes' latest thriller - and neither does the blood! A fast and at times gruesome read made doubly compelling for having its basis in fact.
A pacy yet emotionally involving thriller, with an authentic and nuanced heroine in psychologist Alice Quentin: Kate Rhodes' latest is a terrific read.
Praise for Kate Rhodes
An enjoyably scary chiller
Alice is a wonderfully rounded female protagonist who is vividly written, emotionally accessible and strong. Peppered with false trails, the reader is guessing the killer's identity right up to the last minute. This is a bone chilling read that will grip you from beginning to end
A terrific new heroine on the block
Like Nicci French, Kate Rhodes excels at character, pace and sense of place
A pacy psychological thriller that makes good use of its London setting
Alice is a vividly realised protagonist whose complex and harrowing history rivals the central crime storyline
One of the most absorbing books I've read in a long time. Alice Quentin is such a warm character - unique, yet very real. I loved the sense of menace too - perfectly thrilling.
Quentin is one of a cast of really believable and entertaining characters and both the plot and the writing keep one thoroughly engaged throughout
A fast-moving, entertaining mix of sex, suspense and serial killings
Great twists, turns and surprises
The plot has more twists and turns than the path of the legendary river and flows along just as swiftly. We couldn't put it down!
Atmospheric and suspenseful
Fast paced and harrowing, this gripping novel will leave you guessing until the end
Alice Quentin is such a warm character - unique, yet very real. I loved the sense of menace too - perfectly thrilling.
One of those books that leaves the reader wanting more. The life of each character is so vividly painted that even those in minor roles become intriguing, and the pace never slackens from the first page to the last.
Kate Rhodes is the queen of atmospheric suspense.

Clare Riordan and her son Mikey's day starts as usual with an early morning walk. But they are in danger...
