"A stunning book and a series that has become a must read." M.W. Craven, Sunday Times Bestselling author of the Washington Poe series A chilling revelation. Hidden truths. Lives on the brink. Detective Inspector Solomon Gray is thrust into a haunting case when he stumbles upon a macabre find-an infant's mummified remains concealed within a cardboard box. The shocking discovery unfolds within the walls of a quiet residence, belonging to the late Andrea Ogilvy. With a past as a foster carer, Ogilvy's abrupt departure from her role raises perplexing questions. What secrets pushed her to abandon her caregiving responsibilities? Gray's investigation unravels a web of deceit, leading him to three women whose intertwined lives hold the key to unraveling the mystery of the abandoned baby's mother. As he delves deeper, a disturbing pattern emerges - a manipulative figure exploiting vulnerable young women, shielded by a network of lies. Gray soon uncovers a vigilante presence targeting young criminals, administering a brand of justice the police won't. Amidst it all, Gray's own personal struggles threaten to jeopardise his relentless pursuit of the truth. Who is this unknown child? What compelled someone to hide their existence? As Gray's relentless quest for answers unfolds, lives hang in the balance, ready to be shattered by the unforgiving reality he uncovers. In this gripping and emotionally charged thriller, Detective Inspector Solomon Gray races against time, fighting to expose the hidden horrors lurking in the shadows. The stakes are high, and the devastating consequences of the past threaten to tear lives apart.

Detective Sergeant Solomon Gray is a fine creation and Keith Nixon is a sparkling crime fiction talent." Howard Linskey, author of the Detective Ian Bradshaw crime series "Keith Nixon does for Margate what Peter James did for Brighton ... As dark and brooding as the wind-lashed shores of the North Sea, and with its disturbing echoes of the Elm Guest House scandal and suggestions of deep-seated institutional corruption, a superb addition to the rich Brit Crime scene."
