Summary

When a three-year old girl is reported missing, DCI Andy Gilchrist is assigned the case. But Gilchrist soon suspects that the child's mother - Andrea Davis - may be responsible for her daughter's disappearance, or worse, her murder.

The case becomes politically sensitive when Gilchrist learns that Andrea is the daughter of Dougal Davis, a former MSP who was forced to resign from Scottish Parliament after being accused of physically abusing his third wife. Now a powerful businessman, Davis demands Gilchrist's removal from the case when his investigation seems to be stalling. But then the case turns on its head when Gilchrist learns that a paedophile, recently released from prison, now lives in the same area as the missing child. The paedophile is interrogated but hours later his body is found on the beach with evidence of blunt force trauma to the head, and Gilchrist launches a murder investigation.

As pressure relentlessly mounts on Gilchrist, he begins to unravel a dark family secret, a secret he believes will solve the fate of the missing child.

More torment for Andy

i love DI Gilchrist and his team. ive listened to them all and although this is not my favourite it still had me gripped to the end. it would have got 5 stars if it had dealt with the Sammy Bell murder to its conclusion. i love the narration and look forward to the next installment.

Excellent series

Twists and turns and secrets abound when a child goes missing. Even the top brass is out for blood. The narrator does a fine job as always

Great performance and lots of suspense

Being Scottish, it was nice to listen to a Scottish narrator & for the story to describe various locations in Scotland. I thought the story had lots of suspense and twists and turns & loved every bit of it. I will definitely be looking out for more books by the author & performances by the narrator, as his was great in this. I loved his ability to sound like an English or Scottish man or woman. I never guessed the outcome of the story, which I loved.

Cut above the genre crime drama

Very interesting and enjoyable book. Great narration with a fine Scottish voice. Twists and turns hold the interest to the end. An author to add to my list .

Can’t put these down

These books are quickly becoming my one of my favourites. With David Monteath being one of my favourite narrators. Don’t know what I’m going to do when I’ve listened to them all. I hope there’s more in the pipeline

Granny

I know it's fiction it but DI Gilchrist is a great character, I like the way he treat female and male officers equally,
Theses books I cannot put down. And get angry if someone disturbs me. I don't know how I would cope without my audio books, I'm quite poorly at the moment . I'm really don't like Rachel cooper do hope Gilchrist see the light soon
I highly recommend these series of books, I'm just about to start another DI Andy Gilchrist book

Better

This series is very variable - but this one has a good complex plot. Narrated well - but not brilliantly.
