Von der hinteren Coverseite

Old bones sink - but secrets always rise to the surface.

Newly-minted homicide detective Nell Buchanan returns frustrated to her hometown, assigned to a decades-old murder.

But this is no ordinary cold case, her arrival provoking an unwelcome and threatening response from the small-town community. As more bodies are discovered, and she begins to question how well she truly knows those closest to her, Nell realises that finding the truth could prove more difficult - and dangerous - than she'd ever expected.

The nearer Nell comes to uncovering the secrets of the past, the more treacherous her path becomes. Can she survive to root out the truth, and what price will she have to pay for it?
