Two young girls go missing and DCI Jim Ashworth is plunged straight into a disturbing investigation which unearths a pedophile ring operating in the heart of Bridgetown. When the mutilated body of one of the missing girls is found, Ashworth and DS Holly Bedford are sickened by the depravity at work in the small town. As the grisly details unfold, all in CIA must dig deep within themselves to persevere with the nightmarish investigation. Then another child is abducted, and every second counts if they are to find her alive.

Tourist brochures present Instanbul as a glamorous, modern city, but the brochures don’t make much mention of Balat, a decrepit neighborhood of narrow, twisting alleys and crumbling tenements. Until recently it was home to Leonid Meyer, a reclusive elderly Jew who, like many of his neighbors, came here long ago to escape one of Europe’s various bloodbaths. But Meyer’s refuge ultimately became his coffin, the carnage crowned with a gigantic swastika. A racit murder?
