An abandoned Southwark warehouse burns next door to a women's
shelter for victims of spousal abuse. Within it lies the charred
corpse of a female body burned beyond all recognition. At the same
time, workers at Guy's Hospital anxiously discuss the disappearance
of a hospital administrator -- a beautiful, emotionally fragile
young woman who's vanished without a trace.
And in an old, dark, rambling London house, nine-year-old
Harriet's awful fears won't be silenced -- as she worries about her
feuding parents, her schoolwork . . . and the strange woman who is
her only companion in this scary, unfamiliar place.
Gemma James and Duncan Kincaid -- lovers and former partners --
have their own pressing concerns. But they must put aside private
matters to investigate these disturbing cases. Yet neither Gemma
nor Duncan realize how closely the cases are connected -- or how
important their resolutions will be for an abducted young child who
is frightened, alone . . . and in serious peril.
