Searing suspense from award-winning author Peter Robinson-an insightful and haunting novel of past crimes and present evil.
During a blistering summer, drought has depleted Thornfield Reservoir, uncovering the remains of a small village called Hobb's End-hidden from view for over 40 years. For a curious young boy this resurfaced hamlet has become a magical playground... until he unearths a human skeleton.
Detective Chief Inspector Alan Banks is given the impossible task of identifying the victim-a woman who lived in a place that no longer exists, whose former residents are scattered to the winds. Anyone else might throw in the towel but Banks sets out to uncover the murky past buried beneath a flood of time...
Peter Robinson grew up in Yorkshire, and is the author of thirteen previous novels featuring Inspector Banks. He is the winner of numerous awards in the United States, Britain and Canada, and in 2002 he won the CWA Dagger in the Library award.
