They called it a tragedy. He calls it murder. Vince Carter is a man hollowed out by grief and guilt. A retired cop who once saved strangers but couldn’t save his own wife, he now lives a solitary existence in a decaying cottage. But his self-imposed exile is shattered when police knock on his door with devastating news. The crash that killed his estranged daughter and her husband left one survivor: eight-year-old Melanie. Now, Vince is the only thing standing between his traumatized granddaughter and a cold, uncertain future. But as he navigates the wreckage of his family, Vince discovers a threatening voicemail that suggests this was no accident. Only his former colleague - Detective Liz Moorland - takes his theories seriously but her hands are full hunting a dangerous fugitive. When Vince uncovers a dark connection between Melanie’s crash and Liz’s case the threads tighten, and one heartbreaking truth emerges... Melanie saw something. And the killer knows it.
