Private investigator Stuart Bloom was missing, presumed dead.
Until now.

His body is discovered in an abandoned car - in an area that had already been searched...

Detective Inspector Siobhan Clarke combs through the mistakes of the original investigation. After a decade without answers, it's time for the truth.

But it seems everyone involved with the case is hiding something.

None more so than Siobhan's own mentor: former detective John Rebus. The only man who knows where the trail may lead - and that it could be the end of him.

JILLY COOPER

'Absolutely wonderful. Clever, gripping, a fabulous read.'

ELLY GRIFFITHS

'Definitely not to be missed. No reader will go away disappointed.'

'Thrillingly told, with the best cast in contemporary crime, Rankin is one of the most significant social commentators of our time. Just read the book. It says it better than I can.'
