Synopsis

'Clever, complex and memorable, this is an unputdownable crime thriller. It kept me gripped right up to its pulse-racing final act' B P Walter
1994. Adrian Brown works at the local paper, haunted by his past and with good reason. Eight years ago, he was kidnapped by the Lollipop Man, a shadowy figure linked to three missing Yorkshire children. Adrian was the only one who escaped. Now another child has gone missing in circumstances that chillingly echo those disappearances years ago.
As public fear mounts and the media fans the flames, journalist Sheila Hargreaves, burdened by her past reporting on the abductions, is determined to uncover the truth and finally bring the Lollipop Man to justice.
'An enthralling thriller, deftly executed' Marion Todd
Slow-burn suspense, building to crackling tension and breathless pace - with an incendiary finish' M.K. Murphy
'Swift paced and cleverly plotted...Both shocking and moving' Cath Staincliffe
