Scotland Yards finest, Duncan Kincaid and Gemma James, return in this acclaimed New York Times Notable series, as they investigate an intense mystery involving marriage and murder. An abandoned Southwark warehouse burns next door to a womens 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 Guys Hospital anxiously discuss the disappearance of a hospital administrator -- a beautiful, emotionally fragile young woman whos vanished without a trace. And in an old, dark, rambling London house, nine-year-old Harriets awful fears wont 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.
