'Ben Myers is the master of English rural noir, and with Turning
Blue, he has created a whole new genre: folk crime ... this is by
turns gripping, ghastly and unputdownable' PAUL KINGSNORTH In the
depths of winter in an isolated Yorkshire hamlet, a teenage girl,
Melanie Muncy, is missing. The elite detective unit Cold Storage
dispatches its best man to investigate. DI Jim Brindle may be
obsessive, taciturn and solitary, but nobody on the force is more
relentless in pursuing justice. Local journalist Roddy Mace has
sacrificed a high-flying career as a reporter in London to take up
a role with the local newspaper. For him the Muncy case offers the
chance of redemption. Darker forces are at work than either man has
realised. On a farm high above the hamlet, Steven Rutter, a
destitute loner, harbours secrets that will shock even the hardened
Brindle. Nobody knows the bleak moors and their hiding places
better than him. As Brindle and Mace begin to prise the secrets of
the case from the tight-lipped locals, their investigation leads
first to the pillars of the community and finally to a local
celebrity who has his own hiding places, and his own dark tastes.
