As dusk falls, a young man staggers through a park, far from home, bleeding from a stab wound. He dies where he falls, cradled by a stranger, a woman's name on his lips in his last seconds of life. DI Manon Bradshaw can't help taking an interest - these days she handles only cold cases, but the man died just yards from the police station where she works. She's horrified to discover that both victim and prime suspect are more closely linked to her than she could have imagined.

Mid-December, and Cambridgeshire is blanketed with snow. Detective Sergeant Manon Bradshaw tries to sleep after yet another soul-destroying Internet date – the low murmuring of her police radio her only solace. Over the airwaves come reports of a missing woman – door ajar, keys and phone left behind, a spatter of blood on the kitchen floor. Manon knows the first 72 hours are critical: you find her, or you look for a body.

Manon Bradshaw är 39 år, och även om hon är en respekterad medlem av poliskåren och älskar sitt jobb önskar hon sig ett annat privatliv. Manon är singel, längtar efter barn, och stämpeln "desperat medelålders kvinna" närmar sig. En sen kväll, efter ännu en katastrofal nätdejt, sätter hon som vanligt på polisradion för att låta dess bakgrundsljud vagga henne till sömns - och hör ett meddelande som får henne att omedelbart bege sig till en förbryllande brottsplats.

A young man is found hanging from a tree, with nothing to identify him. Was he driven to suicide, or was he silenced? Somebody knows, but they’re not saying. With potential witnesses too scared to talk to her, can DI Manon Bradshaw discover the truth before more innocent people die?
