✦ Synopsis

Meet Detectives Slater and Norman, an unlikely crime-solving duo. They might seem like they have nothing in common, except a love of doughnuts and banter. But they never give up on a case, no matter how tough things get . . .
Three little girls. All blonde, adorable — all missing from the same school.
Frazzled single mum Janet Morrison gets to St Xavier’s School, twenty minutes late for pick-up. She scans the playground for her eight-year-old daughter, panic rising in her chest. Chrissy should be here. Waiting by the gate like always.
This time, Chrissy is nowhere to be found.
Detective Slater is called to investigate. But he’s got his work cut out, with his partner, the irreplaceable Norm, off on leave — and just one tenuous lead to go on. An elderly stranger, seen loitering outside the school.
Norm can’t just sit around while a little girl is missing, so he starts some digging of his own. It seems the pupils of St Xavier’s have a history of disappearing. Chrissy’s the third little girl to go missing in thirty years.
Then a body is found, out in secluded Wild Boar Woods, and Slater can feel the pieces of the puzzle falling into place. But darker secrets lie buried out in the woods.
The clock is ticking for Detectives Slater and Norman to bring Chrissy home alive . . .M.F
