About The Book
A disgraced Toronto police detective tries to save a missing teenaged girl in a novel that “ramps up the suspense to fever pitch.” — Publishers Weekly
He may have been cleared of murder charges, but that doesn’t mean Steve Nastos’s troubles are over.

But he’s made a promise to a stranger: to find Lindsay Bannerman, a troubled teenager who has gone missing from her upper-class adoptive home. Teaming up with his similarly disgraced lawyer, he is about to unravel a tale of sadistic abuse and follow a trail littered with lies, deceptions, and lifeless bodies …

Raves and Reviews
“Having a protagonist who is so impulsive and pushes right to the limits of what is generally socially acceptable certainly makes for unpredictable and exciting reading.” — Girl vs Bookshelf
“The conviction with which Cain writes and Nastos’s hard-nosed moral ambiguities makes for one-sitting reading — at least for those willing to risk an extended journey through some unsavoury places where being rich or poor doesn’t matter in the least.” — National Post
“Unrelentingly dark … Cain ramps up the suspense to fever pitch and follows the exciting ending with an ambiguous dénouement that augurs another story.” — Publishers Weekly
