Publisher's Synopsis
The New Year brings a gruesome new discovery for forensic psychologist Dr Kate Hanson and Birmingham's Unsolved Crimes Unit. A mummified body is found beneath the floorboards of a deserted lake house. The dead man was art student Nathan Troy, who disappeared 20 years ago, but evidence at the scene suggests the killer has been keeping an eye on his long-dead victim. As Kate begins to dig further into Nathan's past, she discovers a series of potentially toxic relationships. Why do his housemates refuse to talk about that time? When the disappearance of a local teenager confirms that Nathan's killer is back, Kate and the team must work fast to unmask a murderer who has lain dormant for 20 years.
