It's 1985. A man is hunted down and killed by a woman assassin known as The Head Hunter. Sixteen years later, his body turns up and Detective Inspector Lorraine Hunt is called in to investigate. The day the body is found, Claire Lumsdon is the victim of a violent kidnap - the fourth in a series of abductions of young girls. For Claire and her sixteen-year-old sister Kerry, it's the beginning of a nightmare. Convinced the police can't help, Kerry sets out on a frantic search for her sister. But her hunt leads her to much more than she'd bargained for: a violent underworld; a sixteen year old murder; and, finally, the secrets about her past - and her father - which her mother hoped she'd never have to face. And all the time, the clock is ticking for Claire...
I won the book in a competition on the Internet, but it is not exactly my genre so I'll try to find a reader for it who will enjoy it.
Btw, the book is signed by the author.

I got this book at my first meeting with a book crossing group in Copenhagen, Denmark.
A story about a family who inspite of poverty and bad lingo, share love and a sense of belonging. Several members of the family undergo terrible things and due to this, hitten secrets from the past has to be unfoled in order to make sense of the misfortune the family have lived with for years.
The author lets us in the minds of several characters in the story, so you dont just experience life through the dective´s eyes. This makes the story somewhat different form "ordinary thrillers" and gives you a real sense of the people and the community.
A good drama thriller about what a long kept secret can do to your life and people around you.
