โœฆ Synopsis


Some families evolve. Some erupt.
Travelling through Norway after a tough year of loss, DI Harriet Sloane leaves her family behind and falls into the company of strangers. Some of whom help her shake loose for a while. One of whom is hell-bent on wreaking revenge.
When their paths cross, Harriet must remember how to keep her cool or risk more people losing their lives.
In this gripping thriller, Kelly Creighton gives the Belfast police procedural a Scandi noir accent while exploring the nuances of parenthood and how and when we should relinquish control and accept our losses...M.F
