JANE HARPER 'Contender for thriller of the year' SUNDAY EXPRESS 'An
accomplished and moving story of crime, punishment, love and
redemption' GUARDIAN For fans of Jane Harper's The Dry comes a
powerful novel about the lengths we will go to keep our family
safe. This is a story about good and evil and how life is lived
somewhere in between. Thirty years ago, Vincent King became a
killer. Now, he's been released from prison and is back in his
hometown of Cape Haven, California. Not everyone is pleased to see
him. Like Star Radley, his ex-girlfriend, and sister of the girl he
killed. Duchess Radley, Star's thirteen-year-old daughter, is
part-carer, part-protector to her younger brother, Robin - and to
her deeply troubled mother. But in trying to protect Star, Duchess
inadvertently sets off a chain of events that will have tragic
consequences not only for her family, but also the whole town.
Murder, revenge, retribution. How far can we run from the past,
when the past seems doomed to repeat itself? WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING
