When Cal Weaver stops at a red light on a rainy night while driving home, he ignores the bedraggled-looking teenage girl trying to hitch a ride - even when she starts tapping on his window. But when he realises she's one of his son's classmates, he knows he can't really leave her, alone, on the street.

But nothing prepares him for the consequences of trying to help her out. The next morning he's gone from Good Samaritan to Murder Suspect, and with one girl dead and another missing, he's suddenly at the centre of a deadly puzzle that reaches right to the heart of the town - from its bullying police force to its strangely furtive mayor - and finally to one family's shocking secret.

Brilliant as always - would never have guessed the ending here! Wonderfully written and very well-developed characters who I truly cared about. The plot was believable but crazy and I could NOT put this down. Excellent.

Enjoyable “who done it “, with a simple to follow plot but with a twist you don’t see coming , but is still logical . All the loose ends are nicely sewn up by the end , although the body count seems unnecessarily high, and the motivations of the “ baddies” do seem to go off piste a little , but still it’s an entertaining story , it does move at a decent pace with clues emerging as it goes. It’s not great literature but it’s a solid crime novel .

Good who dun it , with a twist
