When 13-year-old Matthew Whateley goes missing from a prestigious West Sussex public school, Inspector Thomas Lynley receives a call for help.
Lynley, his partner Detective Sergeant Barbara Havers, and forensic scientist Simon St. James begin a search for a child - then for a child killer!
Lynley and Havers sense evil behind the school's cloistered walls. Their investigation exposes their own emotional wounds...and blinds them to the signs of another murder in the making.
