The second novel in the adventures of detectives Imogen Gray and Adrian Miles—the heroes of Catherine Diamond’s international bestseller “The Teacher”!
Do you know how to keep secrets? Can you keep a secret on which your life—or your death—depends?
Bridget Reid, a police officer working undercover as a frivolous “night butterfly” embedded in organized crime circles, has disappeared without a trace. And behind her, the kidnapper left three corpses…
Is Bridget alive? Or has her secret been revealed, and she has been killed?
Detective Imogen Gray and her friend and colleague Adrian Miles begin searching—and sink deeper into the swamp of crime, filth, and blood that the respectable residents of the quiet English city of Exeter don’t even know exists.
Bridget’s fate is still unknown. And maybe, to save her, some secrets would be better left alone?..
