Beneath the water the body sank rapidly. Above her on dry land, the nightmare was just beginning. When Detective Erika Foster receives a tip-off that key evidence for a major narcotics case was stashed in a disused quarry on the outskirts of London, she orders for it to be searched. From the thick sludge the drugs are recovered, but so is the skeleton of a young child. The remains are quickly identified as seven-year-old Jessica Collins. The missing girl who made headline news twenty-six years ago. As Erika tries to piece together new evidence with the old, she must dig deeper and find out more about the fractured Collins family and the original detective, Amanda Baker. A woman plagued by her failure to find Jessica. Erika soon realises this is going to be one of the most complex and demanding cases she has ever taken on. Is the suspect someone close to home? Someone is keeping secrets. Someone who doesn't want this case solved. And they'll do anything to stop Erika from finding the truth. From the million-copy bestselling author of The Girl in the Ice and The Night Stalker, comes the third heart-stopping book in the Detective Erika Foster series. Watch out for more from DCI Erika Foster. She's fearless. Respected. Unstoppable. Detective Erika Foster will catch a killer, whatever it takes. 1. THE GIRL IN THE ICE 2. THE NIGHT STALKER 3.

      At the start of Bryndza’s suspenseful, if somewhat implausible, third novel featuring Det. Chief Insp. Erika Foster (after The Night Stalker), the divers Erika is supervising in a search for 10 kilos of heroin in a quarry on the outskirts of South London discover what appears to be the skeleton of a child. When dental records identify the remains as those of a seven-year-old girl who vanished 26 years earlier while walking to a friend’s birthday party in what subsequently became one of the area’s most baffling cold cases, feisty Erika fights to lead the probe, despite her recent transfer to the Organized and Economic Crime team. It swiftly appears that the case—which not only destroyed the victim’s family but also ruined other lives including that of the original supervising officer—could prove equally toxic the second time around. Meanwhile, shadowy characters set out to stymie Erika, no matter the cost, and she must deal with the budding mutual attraction between her and one of her subordinates. Bryndza delivers plenty of surprises along the way. Fans of contemporary police procedurals will be satisfied.
