Newly promoted DS Julie Kite has been in sleepy mid-Wales for mere months when she''s faced with her second murder case. A man''s body has been found by school kids trekking the Monk''s Trod. The trail takes her back north to her parents in Manchester and to a housing estate in Blackpool. It''s not a simple case - a young mother has disappeared, but so has her son and her next door neighbour''s wife. And the husband of the landlady of the B&B where the girl was staying. When an exserviceman farmhand with PTSD attempts to take his own life the case gets more complex still.
