Description
'A complex mystery, which both chills and entertains.' Thomas Waugh March 1987 The past isn't dead... John Lyon, a retired Detective Inspector, is still recovering from serious physical injury. Something is still ill at ease inside of him too. Lyon misses the challenge of solving crime and bringing the guilty to justice. Lyon is enjoying a spring break near Fishguard with old flame DC Alison McConnell, when news reaches them of a missing eight-year-old French boy, Mathieu Deschamps. Mathieu is regularly bullied at school. But something more is amiss.Vervain is missing as well - a valuable steeplechaser trained by the boy's father. Laure Deschamps, the trainer's older daughter who reared the horse from a foal, will do anything to find the horse and her brother. Soon, John and Alison are trapped in an ever more dangerous web. But who has spun it? Someone inside or outside the family? Lies will be uncovered and lives changed for ever. Recommended for fans of Angela Marson, Peter James and Harlan Coben.
