Close to Home

DI Adam Fawley and DC Chris Gislingham have been called out in the early hours to a home where a young girl has gone missing.  Could Daisy have been abducted?  DC Verity Everett, assigned to door-to-door reports that a woman had seen a man carrying a girl in the area.  The girl seemed to have been crying.

DNA found on bloodied tights found near the home are not a match for Daisy.  Then a techie shows pictures from the evening the girl went missing.  There was another girl there dressed in the same way as the missing one.

The parents aren’t really cooperative, however when it is discovered that the husband has been on a dating site, the wife brings in incriminating evidence against him.  When news of his being on a dating site is leaked the home is fire bombed.  Fortunately, the mother and her son managed to escape.  The husband had been turned out of the home, so he was not there.  In turn, the husband provides potentially incriminating evidence against the wife.  Are they trying to frame each other?

Fawley finds that his case is going topsy-turvy.  Author Cara Hunter has Fawley’s team gathering evidence that points to only one suspect.  Twist upon twist!

This was a murder mystery, which I started reading late one afternoon.  I could not put it down!  Had I not had to go to work the next day, I would have stayed up all night to finish it.  Kudos to the author!  I can’t wait to get my hands on the sequels!
