Description from Goodreads:
"The hole they dug was not deep. A white flour bag encased the little body. Three small faces watched from the window, eyes black with terror.
The child in the middle spoke without turning his head. I wonder which one of us will be next?
When a woman’s body is discovered in a cathedral and hours later a young man is found hanging from a tree outside his home, Detective Lottie Parker is called in to lead the investigation. Both bodies have the same distinctive tattoo clumsily inscribed on their legs. It’s clear the pair are connected, but how?
The trail leads Lottie to St. Angela’s, a former children’s home, with a dark connection to her own family history. Suddenly the case just got personal.
As Lottie begins to link the current victims to unsolved murders decades old, two teenage boys go missing. She must close in on the killer before they strike again, but in doing so is she putting her own children in terrifying danger?
Lottie is about to come face to face with a twisted soul who has a very warped idea of justice."

This gripping, but hard to listen to at times, book introduces us to Detective Lottie Parker, a fierce and determined officer who will stop at nothing to uncover the truth. The story begins with a chilling prologue that sets the stage for a suspenseful and thought-provoking story that is not always easy to listen to but sadly believable.
I was hooked from the start. The characters are well-developed and Lottie is a really strong character. The plot is complex and very engaging with twists and turns that kept me on my toes. While it was quite a long book, which might not suit everyone, it didn't detract from my overall enjoyment of the story.
The narrator, Michele Moran, is excellent, really bringing the characters and their world to life.
Overall, this is a great start to a new (to me) detective series and many thanks to the author, Bookouture Audio and NetGalley for enabling me to listen to and share my thoughts on this, a great start to a series.
