The final book in the Annie Graham series will leave you racing to the finish! * * * * Annie Ashworth is on maternity leave from her police job, enjoying spending time with baby Alfie. Her days at home might lack excitement, but after all of the horrific crimes she's witnessed, that's fine with her. But when she starts having strange dreams - dreams that turn out to be linked to a local murder - she can't stop herself from digging. There's an eerie connection to a serial killer from the 1950s, and Annie fears that the same dark forces are back. And maybe it's just new-mum tiredness playing tricks on her, but she's been noticing a cold presence lingering around Alfie late at night. Could her baby be the target of whatever evil is haunting them? And will she have what it takes to protect him? * * * * Readers love the Annie Graham series! 'This is a fantastic story. An excellent combo of "who-dunnit", tragic timelines and haunted houses' Reader review ????? 'This book had me reading into the early hours of the morning, I just loved it. I was there with Annie and felt the hairs stand up on a few occasions. Great start to a new series' Reader review ????? 'This book is raved about by all who read it and rightly so. It is a startling good read which grips you from the first few pages. I COULD NOT put this book down!' Reader review ????? 'There were times I totally lost myself in the plot. I even found myself sat up at 4am racing through the last couple of chapters as I wanted to know what happened. I loved it' Reader review ?????
