The baby is in the middle of the road. Cocooned in a car seat, tiny face suddenly, violently, illuminated by the headlights.
Detective Dove Milson swerves to avoid the car seat. Ten metres up the road, a car is crashed in a ditch.
Detective Steve Parker rushes to the car, while Dove attends to the baby.
But it’s just a doll, and the driver is missing. There is a trail of blood leading into the woods.
As the detectives search the scene, someone shoots at them. Dove sees a shadowy figure crashing off into the woods. Then she realizes that Steve has been hit.
When backup arrives, the driver of the abandoned car is found dead nearby. A carved stone heart placed in her mouth.
She’s not the murderer’s first victim. And she won’t be the last.

Review
Another great addition to the Dove Milson series one that is packed full of suspense all the way through. A very intriguing read with a mind blowing ending.
What is a baby doing in a car seat in the middle of a road in the dark? That is what Dove and Steve ask themselves after having to swerve to avoid hitting it. Investigation reveals that it is just a doll but then they see the car in a ditch and when they go to check it out a shot is fired. What IS going on? The answers are going to be a long time coming and the investigation will lead the pair along many false leads along the way.
It soon becomes clear that secrets are being kept but what are they and how are they going to crack this case if they can’t work out what it is all about.
The book alternates between the investigation from Dove’s perspective and the point of view of victims of an abusive father.
The characters are well defined and realistic and although there are many of them the author makes a brilliant job of keeping the reader up to date along the way.
Violence, secrets, revenge and relationships all play a part in this gripping story that will appeal to anyone who loves Crime Fiction.
