Hill's sixth in the Serrailler series finds the cathedral town of Lafferton underwater and as the floods recede they reveal the body of a local teenage girl who went missing years before. DCI Simon Serrailler has to reopen a cold case with hardly any manpower due to budget cuts and staff shortages but he relishes the challenge. So much so that he may be neglecting the only family he has left.
NB Hill doesn't shy away from hot button issues - in this case - assisted suicide, but she explores the subject both sensitively and thoroughly.
