DI Vincent Swann

He came home to escape his past. Now it’s back to haunt him.

Crouched over the body of a young woman in the mud, her glassy eyes reflecting the glowing Manchester skyline, DI Vincent Swann feels a familiar chill creep his spine. Home after his last case almost cost him his life, he knows he can’t trouble the waters with his new team. But the pram tracks leading away from the scene mean a killer didn’t just take a life. He took a child…

In his crisp suit, Swann looks like an outsider, but no-one knows the city’s darkest corners like he does. Toying with the burner phone in his pocket, his instincts tell him not to make the call, but every second counts.

Then he sees the pale pink ribbon carefully placed on the ground not far from the body, and the city walls close in on him. It’s the calling card of the killer he sacrificed everything to put behind bars, and whether he caught the wrong man or it’s a copycat, Swann knows that only unthinkable danger lies between him and saving that missing child…

A totally gripping and absolutely suspenseful thriller from bestselling author Helen H. Durrant. Listeners of Angela Marsons, Helen Fields and D.S. Butler will be hooked from the start!
