Dark Game

"Beneath the veneer of a sleepy Northern town lies a dangerous underworld. After a scandal forces Detective Kelly Porter out of the Metropolitan Police, she returns to her home turn in the Lake District and begins work on a cold case that shocked the local community--the abduction and brutal murder of a ten-year-old girl. Meanwhile, the Cumbrian police are also investigating two seemingly straightforward crimes: a case involving a foreign national, and a robbery following the death of a local businessman. When fresh evidence reveals a web of darkness beyond anything Kelly ever imagined, she risks paying the ultimate price in her relentless pursuit of the truth."--Page 4 of cover.
