Synopsis
The latest spine-chilling thriller from the queen of crime, Val McDermid.
'There are lots of things that ran in families, but murder wasn't one of them . . .'
When a teenage joyrider crashes a stolen car and ends up in a coma, a routine DNA test could be the key to unlocking the mystery of a twenty-year-old murder inquiry. Detective Chief Inspector Karen Pirie is an expert at solving the unsolvable. With each cold case closed, justice is served. So, finding the answer should be straightforward, but it's as twisted as the DNA helix itself.
Meanwhile Karen finds herself irresistibly drawn to another case, one that she has no business investigating. And as she pieces together decades-old evidence, Karen discovers the most dangerous kinds of secrets. Secrets that someone is willing to kill for . . .
Number one bestseller, Val McDermid returns with her most atmospheric, gripping novel to date.

Review
An incredibly suspenseful thriller, elegantly plotted with smartly drawn characters and fascinating detail (Sunday Mirror)
What superlatives are there left to describe the phenomenon that is the multi award-winning McDermid? . . . Told with McDermid's legendary verve and eye for detail, it grabs the reader by the throat and never lets go (Daily Mail)
It is evident in her 30th novel that her mastery of the crime has matured well (Sunday Express)
[An] engaging new novel . . . McDermid's 30th novel offers fascinating insights into the ethical dilemmas thrown up by advances in forensic science (Sunday Times)
Her books combine ironclad storytelling technique, cogent commentaries on modern society and an attitude to the crime genre's long history that is both interrogative and innovative . . . we are reminded that the new Queen of Crime is still at the top of her game (Independent)
McDermid's expertly juggled plotlines and masterful handling of pace and tension tick all the best boxes, but what makes this book a real cracker is Pirie herself - grieving, insubordinate and dogged in her pursuit of the various culprits (Guardian)
Quite simply, nobody does British crime writing better . . . [a] twisty, deliciously tangled thriller (Peterborough Telegraph)
As intelligent and chillingly good as ever (Good Housekeeping)
Packed with intrigue, warmly drawn characters and dollops of tension, McDermid's 30th novel leaves the reader looking forward to the 31st (Irish Independent)
On her 30th novel . . . none is more deserving of the queen-of-crime mantle than Val McDermid . . . I would like to see a great deal more of DCI Pirie (Irish Times)
