A missing student, a hidden truth, a reluctant detective.

A dark regional UK psychological thriller perfect for fans of Ann Cleeves, J.M. Dalgliesh, and the chilling, landscape-driven tension of L.J. Ross.
A MISSING STUDENT
When trans student Jericho goes missing, the police look away and Dartmoor University moves quickly to bury the case. Literature lecturer Adrian Moody is her only hope.

A HIDDEN TRUTH
Jericho left behind a sonnet sequence, a chilling literary trail pointing straight to a killer. Every line conceals a motive; every stanza hides a deadly secret.

A RELUCTANT DETECTIVE
To decipher the verses, Adrian must confront a toxic web of academic corruption and violent prejudice. But on Dartmoor, asking the right questions makes you the next target.

A Girl on the Moor is the gripping second installment in the Dartmoor Noir series, where poetry conceals murder and the moors never forget.
