Everyone has a price . . .
A serial child-killer. A couple ten thousands of pounds in debt. And a young girl with a mysterious, terrifying illness . . .
When the body of a boy is discovered on the shores of Kingsfield reservoir, Detective Inspector Alan Fielding knows he is up against it. Like the killer's previous two victims, there is no sign of violence, no fingerprints left behind, nothing but two small puncture marks where the overdose of heroin was injected. Whoever is carrying out the attacks is careful, methodical and clever. Fielding is frantic to find the killer before another child is taken . . .
All desperate people running out of time. When their worlds collide, there'll be hell to pay . . .
