She thinks the island will keep her safe—she is wrong.
Traumatised by the death of a child in her care, top London
paediatrician Claire seeks refuge on remote Selkie Island in the
wilds of the Irish Sea with her husband Daniel and their baby
daughter Kitty. Hidden away in Daniel’s old family home, Claire
hopes to be as cut off from her guilt as she is from the mainland,
but can she find peace in a place so full of its own secrets?
Twenty years earlier, Daniel’s parents left the island in a boat
and never made it to the mainland. Mystery surrounds their
deaths—and their lives. Why did they set out late at night in a
storm? What had really been going on at the house? Even as Claire
begins to recover her sense of self amid the island’s rugged
beauty, she can’t shake off a chilling suspicion that Selkie
Island has a dark history that the locals just can’t face—and
that it somehow has a connection to her own life. When baby Kitty
suddenly disappears, Claire’s fragile world falls apart. The only
way to secure her future is to uncover the past, but the closer she
gets to answers, the more danger she finds herself in. Will she be
able to save her family or will the island’s dark secrets take
another life?

From the bestselling author of the DI Amy Winter series comes a
thriller about a shocking disappearance-and the village that has
conspired to keep the truth buried. Ten years ago, the Harper
family disappeared. Their deserted cottage was left with the water
running, the television playing cartoons, the oven ready for
baking. The doors were locked from the inside. Overnight, the
sleepy village of Nighbrook became notorious as the scene of the
unsolved mystery of the decade, an epicentre for ghoulish media
speculation. For crime journalist Naomi, solving the case has
turned into an obsession. So now, with Ivy Cottage finally listed
for sale, it's her chance to mount an investigation like no other.
And her husband and stepdaughter don't really need to know what
happened in their new home... do they? But Nighbrook isn't quite
the village she expected. No one wants to talk to her. No one will
answer her questions. And as she becomes increasingly uneasy, it's
clear that the villagers are hiding something-that there is
something very dark at the heart of this rural idyll. And the
deeper she digs, the more it seems her investigation could be more
dangerous than she ever imagined... In raking up the secrets of the
past, has she made her own family the next target?

A string of suicides. A community in terror. And a chilling
conspiracy only DI Amy Winter can crack. A wave of apparent
suicides hits a string of seaside resorts, but when a police
officer is named as the latest to die, DI Amy Winter suspects there
may be more than mere coincidence to these tragic deaths. But what
dark motive could cause someone to throw themselves into the cold
depths of the North Sea? Someone in the community knows more than
they are letting on, but Amy’s questions are met with resistance.
A group of mysterious teenagers might hold the key, but why are
they so afraid to talk? Meanwhile, after the release from prison of
her serial killer mother, Amy is fighting her own demons. In her
toughest investigation yet, Amy must confront her dark past if she
is to put an end to the carnage. What secret is so terrible that
it’s worth killing a police officer for? Amy needs to find the
answer, before the sea washes up any more bodies.
A victim on display. A detective on the rails. Shopping with her
sister, DI Amy Winter is admiring a Valentine’s Day window
display of a perfect bride encrusted in diamonds and resplendent in
lace—until she notices blood oozing from the mannequin’s mouth.
This is no stunt. A post-mortem reveals the victim was left to die
on her macabre throne for all to see. When a second victim is
found, it emerges that both women were ‘Sugar Babes’ arranging
dates with older men online—and Amy finds herself hunting an
accomplished psychopath. As she tracks down the killer, Amy’s
instincts go into overdrive when the charismatic head of the agency
behind the display makes no attempt to hide his fascination with
her serial-killer parents. What exactly does he want from Amy? With
her own world in freefall as her biological mother, Lillian Grimes,
appeals her conviction, Amy pushes the boundaries of police
procedure when a third ‘Sugar Babe’ disappears…Is she as much
at risk as the killer’s victims?
Meet Amy Winter: Detective Inspector, daughter of a serial killer.
DI Amy Winter is hoping to follow in the footsteps of her highly
respected police officer father. But when a letter arrives from the
prison cell of Lillian Grimes, one half of a notorious
husband-and-wife serial-killer team, it contains a revelation that
will tear her life apart. Responsible for a string of heinous
killings decades ago, Lillian is pure evil. A psychopathic
murderer. And Amy's biological mother. Now, she is ready to reveal
the location of three of her victims-but only if Amy plays along
with her twisted game. While her fellow detectives frantically
search for a young girl taken from her mother's doorstep, Amy must
confront her own dark past. Haunted by blurred memories of a sister
who sacrificed herself to save her, Amy faces a race against time
to uncover the missing bodies. But what if, from behind bars,
Grimes has been pulling the strings even tighter than Amy thought?
And can she overcome her demons to prevent another murder?
Dragons are immensely powerful, creative, inquisitive and
honourable beings, with enormous compassion and often a dry sense
of humour. This ground-breaking oracle deck allows users to connect
with 33 dragons, each with their own personality and way of helping
us. Each of the 33 stunning cards represents one of the dragons,
and an 80-page booklet profiles the dragons in detail, suggesting
how to work with their energy. The Dragons are grouped in four
clans: the Earth Walk Dragons, the empowering, who support us on
our physical journey; the multi-dimensional Galactic Dragons, the
connectors, who work out in the galaxies to raise our vibration;
the Grand Master Dragons, shape-shifting spiritual teachers who
seek us out when we have started to advance; and the Guardian
Dragons, who work in pairs, balancing each other's energies like
yin and yang and guiding us wherever we are on our spiritual
journey. Rather than giving us straight answers, the dragons guide
us as we begin to trust ourselves, our intuition and our inner
wisdom. Working with the dragons, we notice when the Universe is
answering our call, and then act upon it. As our spiritual growth
deepens, we become more self-aware and release old belief patterns,
behaviours and ways of being. The Dragons ask only that we be true
to ourselves. There is no set way to use the cards - connect with
the Dragons in the way that feels right to you, whether that is
picking a Daily Guidance card for instant insight or using the
spreads described in the booklet, such as the Month Ahead spread,
defining your focus for the next four weeks, or the Spiritual
Seeker spread, created to help you on your spiritual journey.

perfect nightmare...
