Stephen lives on a gloomy, drafty plateau in the very center of England. Everywhere you look there is only heather and gorse. Eternal rain and soul-tearing wind. Not the best place for children to play. But Stephen doesn't play. He is trying to uncover a long-standing secret. Many years ago, his Uncle Billy, who was Stephen's age at the time, left home and never returned. Since then, everything has gone wrong in the family. Stephen's grandmother stands at the kitchen window all day long, not noticing anything or anyone, she waits to see if Billy will suddenly appear on the path... And Stephen dreams of a normal family, of sweet domestic nonsense, which he never had. But, having learned about the tragedy, he realized that until Billy's body was found, nothing would improve in their lives. And an eleven-year-old boy enters into a complex and dangerous game with a killer who, even behind bars, is extremely dangerous. Belinda Bauer's surprisingly tense, gothic, charming and extremely original detective story won the Golden Dagger and three other prestigious detective awards in 2010.
