★★★★★ "You had me at 'no profanity, graphic descriptions of sex or violence.'"
A missing girl. A broken doll. A scandal some would rather forget…
When 15-year-old Beth Ridley vanished on her way to school, it was a baffling mystery that shocked the small island community of Gorey. The girl was never found, and the sole clue - a leg torn from a doll she was carrying - led investigators nowhere. The case soon went cold…
Now, on the tenth anniversary of her disappearance, Detective Inspector Graham is taking another look at the case. As a cop in the big city, Graham has seen more than his fill of darkness and death. Something about the case doesn’t feel right, and the inspector can’t seem to let it go. What he uncovers will rock the town of Gorey to the core, and stir up memories long since forgotten. There are painful truths to face. And some people would prefer that their secrets stay buried…
The Case of the Broken Doll is a gripping fourth mystery in this best-selling traditional British detective mystery series with a modern twist. With fiendishly clever twists and characters you'll grow to love, it’s easy to see why Golden’s books have been described as “captivating” and “unputdownable.” Warning: may cause sleepless nights… because you won’t be able to stop reading.
