Detective Mike Nash thought that moving back to Yorkshire from London would give him a quieter life. Little did he know . . . Expectant mother Demetra Sinclair goes missing in Layton Woods, high in the Yorkshire Dales. Her body is never found, and the man thought to be her lover is also killed in a brutal attack. Demetra's husband Nick is convicted of both murders, but maintains his innocence. Mike Nash returns from his holiday in the warm Spanish sun only to be called out to the cold, remote Layton Woods. The remains of a woman have been unearthed. Has Demetra finally been found? Then three more skeletons - two women and a man - are discovered nearby. But Demetra was pregnant when she went missing. As the bodies pile up, Detective Mike Nash and his team are in a race against time - and the elements - to catch a killer from the past. A breathtaking crime thriller perfect for fans of J.R. Ellis, L.J. Ross, Angela Marsons, J.D. Kirk, Helen H. Durrant, Joy Ellis or Peter Robinson.
