'Atmospheric eeriness... [and a] much-too-real feel.' Oxford Times

'A creepy combination of detective and gothic.' Sunday Post, Dundee

In the shadowy caves of the Derbyshire Peaks, a discovery is about to shake a group of friends to their core.

They thought what they did that summer would stay buried.

But then the skeleton of a young girl is found -- hidden deep in a network of caves. Detective Sergeant Tom Ward, disillusioned and stuck in a career rut, is forced into action.

As the investigation unfolds, old secrets begin to surface -- secrets buried by those children who once played an eerie game in those caves.

And one of them never came out.

Twenty years later, the ghosts of that summer return. As Tom peels back the layers of lies and loyalties, he realises the killer is still out there -- and willing to kill again.

This suspenseful, twisty crime thriller is perfect for fans of Joy Ellis, Ann Cleeves and Elly Griffiths.
