A decomposed body washes up on a beach near Glasgow. The victim, Tracy Eadie: Junkie. Prostitute. Fourteen years old.
Rosie Gilmour, tabloid journalist and crusader for justice, receives evidence linking police officials with Tracy's disappearance. It seems Tracy, and the secret that was supposed to die with her, are not content to rest.
Digging deeper, Rosie uncovers a sickening network of corruption and child abuse, leading back to the very top of the establishment. And to powerful figures who want their secrets kept hidden.
Rosie has found the story of a lifetime. Yet living to tell it will be her greatest challenge.
The Dead Won't Sleep is a gritty, needle-sharp thriller centred round a heroine who is as affable as she is accessible. It is also a story about following your heart and fighting for the truth, no matter what the danger.
