After dealing with one too many creeps who treat their families like possessions, Detective Bonnie Hunter finds herself sidelined from her team and looking for answers.
Will she find them with Charlie Cooper’s new-look Homicide Squad?
A woman goes out for groceries. She never comes back. And the man demanding answers just might be the one hiding the truth.
Detective Bonnie Hunter is supposed to be taking a break. After a domestic violence call-out ended in tragedy, she’s sidelined, angry – and haunted by what she couldn’t prevent.
But when a young Sydney woman disappears from a quiet holiday town, a former mentor pulls Bonnie back in. Just take a look, he says. Tell me what you see.
Juliet Keller is missing. Her car’s parked on the village main street. Her phone and keys – dropped in the grass. Her husband, Sam, says she vanished without a trace.
But Sam Keller’s anger simmers too close to the surface. His story is too polished. And the more Bonnie sees, the more her instincts start screaming. Because men like Sam don’t always leave marks – but they do leave scars.
Now Bonnie must find out what really happened to Juliet Keller – and whether the truth is something no one’s ready to face.
