A child is kidnapped, followed by several murders. A mystery thriller in the Sandy Woodings series.
ON A CHILL November day in Sheffield, Bobby Stephens, an eight-year-old boy is kidnapped. That same day, in Bolton, two men have a tense meeting in Heywood Park. In Liverpool, a woman breaks into a house to search its contents. All are strands in a tantalizing mystery - and its seems to Chief Inspector Sandy Woodings that Margaret Stephens, the boy’s mother, knows more than she is telling him. As the hunt proceeds, the paucity of evidence becomes alarming. Woodings feels personally involved: his own son, Gerry, is of the same age as Bobby. And Woodings’ marriage is on the rocks. Then a bizarre note arrives, addressed to Margaret Stephens ... and the murders begin. With his perceptive eye for background and character, Frank Ryan has created a thriller masterpiece. In a violent cat-and-mouse game, Woodings finds himself no longer the hunter but the hunted, his own life in constant danger as he begins to unravel a monstrous and terrifying secret with roots that spread far from the North of England and reach back into the turbulent sixties.
