FROM THE AUTHOR OF SEE HOW THEY RUN AND ALL FALL DOWN
On a cold January morning, a nightmare awaits in a sleepy Sussex village. A deranged young man goes on the rampage, shooting everyone in his path before taking his own life. It's a senseless, tragic event.
Only Julia Trent - believed to be the sole survivor - knows that there was a second man involved. But after being shot and badly injured, her account of the massacre is ignored.
Together with Craig Walker, the son of one of the victims, Julia sets out to find the truth before she's silenced for good. As they peel back the layers of a dark and dangerous conspiracy, they discover the slaughter didn't begin on that bitter day in January.
And worst of all, it won't end there.
