"[A] superbly written suspense novel....Barnard quickly
pulls his readers into the plot and holds them there right
through the final pages." -Publishers Weekly
"Robert Barnard is one of the best living British crime writers."
-Peter Robinson, author of the Inspector Banks mysteries
What happens when one's future is shanghaied by one's past?
Soccer star Matt Harper, a rising media celebrity, has just sunk
some roots in Yorkshire by buying a rambling old house in
Leeds. There he intends to settle down with his lover Aileen
and her three children. A survey of the attic with an architect
produces a shock-a tiny skeleton. It is identif¿ied as that of a
two-year-old who died some 30 years ago, during the summer of
1969 when Matt was sent from London to live in Leeds with his
aunt, a summer he spent playing soccer with his mates.
But now, disturbing memories surface. Detective Inspector Charlie
Peace wryly acknowledges the low priority of the case for the
local police, so Matt mounts his own investigation, struggling
to understand how a child could just disappear and never be
reported missing. Whose bones are in the attic?
Robert Barnard is the winner of the Malice Domestic Award for Lifetime
Achievement and the Nero Wolfe Award, as well as the Agatha
and Macavity awards. An eight-time Edgar nominee, he is a member
of Britain's distinguished Detection Club, and he received the
Cartier Diamond Dagger Award for lifetime achievement in mystery
writing in 2003. He lives with his wife, Louise, in Leeds, England.
