An edge-of-your-seat mystery from your new crime fiction obsession: Biba Pearce.

Please note: This book is a completely revised edition of Righteous Anger.

One girl disappears. And there’s a link to an unsolved disappearance close to home.

Katie Wells goes missing on her way to school. Her pink backpack is found weighed down with stones in a local reservoir. Time is running out to find her, and every second counts.

Acting DCI Rob Miller leads a nationwide search, but no trace of the little girl is found.

Meanwhile, Detective Jo Maguire from the National Crime Agency notices striking similarities to her own sister’s disappearance 20 years ago.

Jo's relationship with Rob is deepening, but they don’t have time to figure things out. Maybe Jo's sister was the killer's first victim. And maybe he never stopped.

Now, a body is discovered and the public holds its breath. Is it Katie?

Rob and Jo might just have a serial killer on their hands....

An unstoppable crime mystery that you won’t be able to put down.

This gripping pause-resister is perfect for fans of Helen H. Durrant, James Oswald, Joy Ellis, Angela Marsons, L.J. Ross, Alex Smith, and J.M. Dalgliesh.
