Little Children
Description
Two little children are missing from the same seaside town, and only Kim Stone can find out why…
With the investigation into the boys' disappearance going nowhere, Detective Kim Stone and her team have been sent halfway across the country to help. But they have a second secret mission: to find out if the dark rumours about the local cops are justified, and if that's why the children are still lost. Far from home, they must get close to their targets by pretending to be incompetent, lazy and at each other's throats - and the strain is starting to tell.
All Kim wants to do is investigate both cases properly. She knows she's the only hope these little boys have… but she can't blow her cover. Then, just when Kim starts to make headway with a woman brave enough to speak out about one of the local detectives, she is found dead. Did Kim's questions get her killed? How deep does the rot go?
When another body is found, Kim has a lead at last - one that tells her she's facing some of the worst criminals she's ever known. The time for playing nice is over… but can she bring these children home, when time is running out and she cannot trust a single soul?
A completely gripping page-turning crime thriller from no.1 multi-million-copy bestseller Angela Marsons. Perfect for fans of Val McDermid, Karin Slaughter and Robert Dugoni.
Can be read as a standalone.
