A wealthy wanted man attempts to keep a low profile—but an old case may be stirring up new crimes in this British police thriller.

After years of exile in St. Lucia, tycoon Kevan de Vries has come back to England’s East Midlands and is hiding out at Sausage Hall. His return is driven by an obsessive desire to find out who his father was—despite the risk that the police may come by seeking answers about the disappearance of Tony Sentance, former De Vries Industries employee and leader of a child trafficking gang.

DI Tim Yates and DS Juliet Armstrong are still in the dark about the wealthy fugitive in their midst—but before long, the police are looking into a vanished woman’s possible murder, a Traveller child who may be at risk, and the lingering mysteries surrounding a trafficking ring that could still be operating under their noses . . .
