Both are about to receive a shock when DI Helen Morton shows up as Annie’s cover.
The search site of a murder near Harrogate begins a series of twists which entangle DCI Banks and his loyal team in their bid to get to the truth at the same time as clearing Alan of any involvement. Was DCI Banks’ brother as errant as the evidence suggests?
