In a devastating crime thriller, a little girl is found wandering in an ancient woodland in midwinter, her hands covered in blood, but it is not her own. Unable or unwilling to speak, the only person she seems to trust is the young officer who rescued her, Detective Sergeant Lucy Black. Soon afterwards, DS Black is baffled to find herself suddenly moved from a high-profile case involving the kidnapping of another girl, the teenage daughter of a prominent businessman. At home, Black is struggling to care for her increasingly unstable father and trying to avoid conflict with her frosty mother, who also happens to be the assistant chief constable. As she tries to identify the unclaimed child, Black begins to realize that her case and the kidnapping may be linked by events from the grimmest days of the country's recent history, events that also defined her own troubled childhood.
