About this Book

Newcastle, 1996. Charlie works in the local bail hostel where, exhausted and made cynical by the job, she expects the worst of everyone. When her friend's son is found dead in the local park she is dragged into the hunt for the murderer. Darren was no angel but as she begins to dig into the crime she unwittingly sets in motion a series of threats against the hostel. Her attempts to uncover the truth find her probing failures in the justice system and searching for someone who has fallen through the cracks.
