"When Private Investigator Kate Marshall is rushed to hospital after being pulled into a riptide current in the sea, the near-death experience leaves her shaken. During her recovery, she befriends Jean, an elderly lady on the same ward who tells the harrowing story of how grandson, Charlie, went missing eleven years ago during a camping trip on Dartmoor. By the time Kate is well enough to go home, she's agreed to take on the case, but when Kate and her sidekick Tristan start to look at the events of that fateful night, they discover that Jean has a dark past. Was Charlie abducted? Or did he fall into a rushing river that vanishes into a gorge close to where they were camping. When Kate and Tristan discover that Charlie's social worker was found brutally murdered shortly after his disappearance, it makes them question everything they thought they knew about the family..."--Publisher.
