In the darkness

The second case for DI Adam Fawley from the author of the bestseller *Close to Home*. During a house renovation, the new owner discovers a half-dead woman and a child in the cellar next door. No one knows who they are—the woman doesn't speak, and the police have no record of them in their missing persons files. The homeowner claims he's never seen them before. The residents of the quiet Oxford street are in shock—how could something like this happen right under their noses? But DI Adam Fawley knows that nothing is impossible. And that no one is as innocent as they seem… “An intricate, utterly chilling story which twists and turns, and then twists again.”—The Guardian “Cara Hunter is the new queen of the cliffhanger: fans of *Close to Home* will not be disappointed.”—John Marrs, author of *The One* “Reminiscent of Alfred Hitchcock in his heyday—a gripping pace with one unexpected twist after another.”—Daily Mail “Cara Hunter has a brilliant way with plot and her novels are distinguished by their masterfully-drawn characters.”—Rachel Abbott, author of *Kill Me Again*
