Karen Bastable is a woman longing for more
excitement in her life, and illicit group meetings in a local forest have added
plenty of spark and pleasure recently. That is until one night she meets a man
in search of a more sinister kind of gratification. When her abandoned car is
discovered days later, the case becomes a race against time and it is up to DCI
Michael Thackeray to find her alive, that is, if he isn't too late. Meanwhile,
Thackeray's girlfriend, Laura Ackroyd is struggling with the burden of keeping
her unexpected pregnancy a secret from him. As she barely copes with her
demanding workload as a journalist, Laura is then dealt the troublesome task of
profiling Sir David Murgatroyd, a wealthy venture capitalist with plans to take
over a local school. Yet while his tragic family history is widely acknowledged,
he alternatively remains a mystery. So what has he to hide?
