    About this audiobook

    Beneath a quiet village, dark crimes lie buried.

    When decomposed human remains are discovered in a suitcase behind a locked door in the home of an elderly man, Detective Karen Hart thinks the facts speak for themselves. That is, until she finds the warning: It’s time to pay for your crime.

    The body belongs to a former teacher, Oliver Fox, who vanished from the village thirty years earlier. Hart’s instincts tell her there is something untoward about this rural Lincolnshire community—especially when she uncovers evidence suggesting that, although Fox was a victim, he certainly wasn’t innocent. As the extent of Fox’s crimes becomes apparent and the web of lies continues to unravel, almost nobody in the village is above suspicion.

    When there are whispers of child abuse in connection with the case, it’s clear someone is willing to do anything to keep the sinister truth buried. Can Hart find the culprit before more lives are lost?

      Good book, I enjoyed this- but if you are questioning whether to read the rest of the series- absolutely continue- last 3 books of this series are incredible!!
    • 5/5
      A good follow-up. Worth reading. I will also read the rest, and I hear (from other reviews) that the next three are the real stand-outs in the series. Excited to judge for myself!!
