Merilyn Davies is a former Crime Analyst for the Metropolitan Police and she is married to a serving officer with the Met. She was co-founder of the Chipping Norton Literary Festival and now works for Oxford City Council. She lives in Oxfordshire with her family.
This fast-paced, authentic thriller - written by an ex-crime analyst - immerses you so deeply in the investigation, you'll be desperate to get to the bottom of the case. * Crime Monthly Magazine * 'The darkness surrounding the two girls and their vulnerable hopelessness twanged at my heart strings...That the author is a former crime analyst gives the story an authentic, experienced and intelligent feel. Yet pleasingly there is not too much police jargon. There is a good sense of atmosphere along with time and place in both timelines...an excellent debut novel.' * Crime Review *
