Il detective Erika Foster ha appena ricevuto una soffiata che le indica il luogo in cui è nascosta la prova per sventare un grosso traffico di droga. Seppure sospettosa, ordina la perquisizione di una cava in disuso alla periferia di Londra. Quello che non si aspetta è che, scavando nel fango, oltre alla droga venga ritrovato un piccolo scheletro, subito identificato. Si tratta di Jessica Collins, scomparsa ventisei anni prima all’età di soli sette anni. Il caso fece un grandissimo scalpore e il mistero dietro la scomparsa di Jessica non venne mai risolto. Cominciando a indagare grazie alle nuove prove, Erika si addentra in un caso difficilissimo, in un costante alternarsi di passato e presente. Dovrà fare i conti con i segreti della famiglia Collins, i rimorsi del detective divorato dal senso di colpa per non aver mai ritrovato Jessica, e un altro omicidio avvenuto vicino alla cava. Chi conosce la verità? E perché qualcuno non vuole che il caso venga finalmente chiuso?

Detective Erika Foster is on a late-night walk near her new house in Blackheath when she stumbles upon the brutal murder of Vicky Clarke, a true-crime podcaster. Erika is assigned to the case and discovers that Vicky had been working on a new podcast episode about a sexual predator who preys on young female students around South London, staking out his victims in their halls of residence before breaking in at the dead of night. When Erika discovers that Vicky's notes and sound recordings were stolen from her flat at the time of her murder, it leads her to believe that Vicky was close to unmasking the attacker, and she was killed to guarantee her silence. The case takes on a disturbing twist when the body of a young Bulgarian student doctor is discovered in the same building, and this makes Erika question everything she thought she knew about Vicky. With very little evidence, the clock is ticking to find the killer before he strikes again.
