Description
Under the watchful eye of DCS James Langton, DCI Anna Travis takes charge of an investigation for the first time. But is it purely a missing person's case - or a full blown murder enquiry?
Alan Rawlins, devoted son and loving boyfriend, has been reported missing. When Anna begins to investigate, she discovers an intricate web of lies and secrets surrounding the life of this seemingly quiet and studious young man. Inside the flat he shared with his girlfriend, on carpet hidden in their bedroom, is an ominous pool of blood but no body, no overt trace of a struggle, no clues as to his whereabouts.
Could Rawlins have been the victim or, indeed, the killer? Admissible evidence is thin and yet, the more truths Anna uncovers, the more complex the case becomes. Langton fears that she is losing control of the investigation; she appears obsessed with irrelevant details as the pressure mounts on her to make an arrest.
