A retired cop returns to the mean streets of Nottingham on a murder case that resurrects a haunted past in this "elegantly told tale" (Independent, UK).
When Frank Elder's ex-wife calls him for a favor, he can't say no. Her friend Jennie's sister Claire has gone missing in Nottingham, and she wants him to look into it. Suddenly, he's back on the job . . . and back in the city where his life fell apart.
Elder uncovers sexual secrets of Claire's that take Jennie by surprise. But when Claire is found dead at home—unmarked and carefully dressed—it is Elder who is surprised by the similarities to an old case. To solve this riddle, Elder will have to reconnect with Detective Inspector Maureen Prior and delve into dangerous territory, as well as the traumatic histories of several suspects.
