Forensic psychologist Jill Kennedy had planned to spend the evening before her wedding with her family enjoying a big drink. Or preferably three big drinks. However, all is not well in the sleepy Lancashire village of Kelton Bridge. A young schoolgirl is missing and the girl’s stepfather, a man from Jill’s past, is under suspicion. Jill’s future husband, Detective Chief Inspector Max Trentham, is on leave, all set to spend the next fortnight enjoying a honeymoon in Venice, and Jill isn’t happy leaving the investigation to Detective Inspector Clinton. Besides, who can relax when a child is missing? Jill certainly can’t, especially when it becomes clear that her own life is in danger…
This book is part of the Jill Kennedy and DCI Max Trentham Mystery Books series and is book #6 in the series.
