Meg and Lauren are surprised when the sous-chef at Britford Lodge, Sanjeev, approaches them to ask for help. His cousin, Vikram, has been arrested and detained on suspicion of child abduction and murder! Sanjeev is adamant that his cousin is innocent, but DI Barnes of Salisbury police is convinced that he has his man, despite there being no body and only circumstantial evidence.
Thanks to Lauren passing her driving test, our pair of amateur sleuths are now mobile. After visiting the baby's mother, Mia Jenkins, Meg and Lauren suspect that two-year-old Noah was taken alive, so they set out to find him. Their search takes them into the murky underworld of a racist neo-Nazi group, whose leader is none other than Noah's estranged father, Tyler Ford. Has Tyler organised the kidnap of his own son in order to blame Mia's immigrant boyfriend, Vikram?
Their investigation runs into trouble from the outset, with Lauren's sexy sergeant boyfriend furious that she is interfering in a police matter. Things take a turn for the worse when one of their suspects is murdered, but our sleuths continue to unravel the clues in their hunt for the missing child. As the story races towards its thrilling climax, concern for Noah's safety leads Meg and Lauren into a potentially perilous situation; can DI Dan and DS Viv race to the rescue in time?
