Only great novels capture the spirit of the age. This is one of them.' THE TIMES * * * * 'He's gone...' When his daughter Samantha calls in the dead of night, John Rebus knows it's not good news.

He wasn't the best father – the job always came first – but now his daughter needs him more than ever. But is he going as a father or a detective? As he leaves at dawn to drive to the windswept coast – and a small town with big secrets – he wonders whether this might be the first time in his life where the truth is the one thing he doesn't want to find...
