Three years ago, Ashley Summers watched the love of her life drop dead in a supermarket car park. Now, her friends all say she needs to move on. Live her life. But she has no idea how . . .

Until she meets Tim Bennett. He's kind, caring, like no one she's dated before.

Ashley calls her family, eager for them to meet the new man in her life. She makes a date with them - a date she never manages to keep. Just like that, Ashley's gone.

Distraught, the family turn to ex-detective Ray Flowers for answers. He doesn't usually take missing persons cases. But this one's personal.

Tim Bennett. The name makes Ray's blood run cold. Tim is Ray's friend and a happily married father of three.

Ashley's new boyfriend isn't who he says he is - and Ray will stop at nothing to hunt him down. But, little does he know, his adversary has eyes on him.

A chilling threat to Ray, and everyone he holds dear, is enough to stop him in his tracks.

This imposter's taken Ashley. What on earth does he want with Ray?

An utterly addictive mystery thriller for readers who love Ann Cleeves, Joy Ellis, Gretta Mulrooney, Cara Hunter, Tana French, Louise Penny, and Elly Griffiths.
