4.0
This book takes us back to the beginning of who we know as DI Tom Thorne. This is set in 1996 when he was a detective sergeant working the case of a missing seven year old boy taken from a suburban park while playing hide-n-seek with his best friend and their parents were nearby. It's a case that reveals the secrets of families and how what is seen on the outside is not necessarily what goes on behind closed doors.
It also show the character to Tom Thorne who has just separated from his wife, he meets Paul Hendricks the pathologist and it features characters in the other books. It's an enjoyable read and reveals more about the character.
It also shows that the case may have been 24 years earlier, but it's not forgotten.
