A novel by

 
 
30 years ago, a young man was found dead on Dungeness beach, Kent — seashells where his eyes should be. The killer was never caught.

Now it’s happened again.

FBI exchange agent Sally Rogers is called to the same desolate coast. Another body. Same chilling signature. Her first real case after months of nightmarish PTSD.

Now the vulture press are circling. Her new DCI blocks every step she takes. And in the tiny fishing village of Saltmarsh, the locals bury their secrets deep.

But the killer's signature tells Sally the terror has just begun.

From the shadow of Dungeness power station to the lost villages drowning in the fens, she must tear through decades of lies to stop a murderer who never went away —
before the slack tide drags her into the dark...

A thrilling follow-up to Dark Peak Kill - gripping British crime with an American twist, ideal for fans of Val McDermid, Ann Cleeves and Robert Galbraith.

If you love dark, atmospheric mysteries with twisting plots, a strong female lead and a setting that becomes a character, you’ll be hooked on the Sally Rogers series.
