Riassunto

The summer of 1976 was the hottest in living memory. Britain sweltered, trees and plants wilted, fire ripped through forests and rivers ran dry. In London’s Kew Gardens a 10 year old girl was parted from her friends and, dizzied by scorching heat, wandered lost into its secluded undergrowth. Forty years later, the detective’s daughter Stella Darnell takes on a chilling new case. Along with Jack, a train driver, she will be drawn to the secret spaces of Kew, and to an unsolved murder that has lain dormant for decades.

'Beautifully crafted, thoughtful ... The denouement is both shocking and satisfying ... This is yet another unsettling, accomplished book by a writer at the top of her game and is highly recommended' 10/10, Brainfluff.

'A classic mystery with various red herrings and a surprising but totally fair twist at the end. Readers – pay attention! Highly recommended' Promoting Crime.
