LOST RIVER is the 10th novel in the multiple award-winning Cooper
& Fry series, set in England's beautiful and atmospheric Peak
District. A number 17 Sunday Times bestseller in the UK. A May Bank
Holiday in the Peak District is ruined by the tragic drowning of an
eight-year-old girl in picturesque Dovedale. For Detective
Constable Ben Cooper, a helpless witness to the tragedy, the
incident is not only traumatic, but leads him to become involved in
the tangled lives of the Nields, the dead girl's family. As he gets
to know them, Cooper begins to suspect that one of them is
harbouring a secret - a secret that the whole family might be
willing to cover up. Meanwhile, Detective Sergeant Diane Fry has a
journey of her own to make - a journey back to her roots. As she
finds herself drawn into an investigation of her own among the
inner-city streets of Birmingham, Fry realises there is only one
person she can rely on to provide the help she needs. But that man
is Ben Cooper, and he's back in Derbyshire, where his suspicions
are leading him towards a shocking discovery on the banks of
another Peak District river. PRAISE FOR THE COOPER AND FRY SERIES:
