Ex-detective Thomas Tegan, known to his friends as Trout, and his associate Lauren O’Loughlin have opened a private investigation agency in their home village of Knocknaclogga. TLCI (Tegan, O’Loughlin Consultant Investigation) is awaiting its first official client.
Then Lauren’s cousin Marina Offenbach arrives from London, hysterical and blaming her for the disappearance of her daughter Hannah, Lauren’s godchild. The London police have traced a girl, potentially Hannah, to the Fishguard-Rosslare ferry to Ireland.
Lauren and Trout set out to find Hannah – only to discover that someone else is trying to track her down. Someone who appears to have a lot of money riding onher disappearing and staying that way. Someone who has already killed to ensure that he isn’t thwarted.
They follow a convoluted trail across southern Ireland in their search for the missing girl and a friend, David, who seems to have taken her under his wing.
As the race to find Hannah gathers momentum, they find that the kindness of strangers is keeping her safe but also helping her to remain elusive.
Can they reach her before her MALICIOUS pursuer does?
