About this listen

 Clare Riordan and her son Mikey are abducted from Clapham Common early one morning. Hours later, the boy is found wandering disorientated. Soon after, a pack of Clare's blood is left on a doorstep in the heart of the City of London.

Alice Quentin is brought in to help the traumatised child uncover his memories - which might lead them to his mother's captors. But she swiftly realises Clare is not the first victim... nor will she be the last.

The killers are driven by a desire for revenge... and in the end, it will all come down to blood.

(P)2017 Hodder & Stoughton Crime Fiction Suspense Thriller & Suspense Crime Fiction

Critic reviews

An original and exciting story made all the more disturbing by the fact that the underlying premise is based on real events. An excellent read. (Rachel Abbott)
Excellent...based on a true, fascinating and shocking story
Rhodes goes from strength to strength with this acute reminder of how bureaucratic neglect produced mass tragedy. A fast-paced, riveting read. (Alex Marwood)
The pace never lets up in Kate Rhodes' latest thriller - and neither does the blood! A fast and at times gruesome read made doubly compelling for having its basis in fact. (Tamar Cohen)
A pacy yet emotionally involving thriller, with an authentic and nuanced heroine in psychologist Alice Quentin: Kate Rhodes' latest is a terrific read. (Anya Lipska)
A pacy, finely crafted plot, and the central idea of tainted blood is fantastically well threaded into the story. More than anything, it is written with heart (Alison Joseph)
All stars
Most relevant
An excellent story, fast paced and full of action. The characters were all well drawn and believable. Charlotte Stevens narrates well. As London is my home town I loved all the dashing around places that I know. I will definitely be buying more from this author. I highly recommend this audio book
