Simon Serrailler has just wrapped up a difficult case for SIFT (Special Incident Flying Taskforce) & is on a sabbatical on a far flung Scottish island when he is called back to Lafferton by the Chief Constable. Two local prostitutes have gone missing & are subsequently found strangled. By the time he gets back, another girl has disappeared.

Experienced policemen know that most missing persons either turn up or go missing on purpose. But fresh young D.S. Freya Graffham won t drop it until she discovers what links the people who disappear on The Hill, young and old, men and women, even a little dog. Susan Hill writes with compassion, humour and a unique understanding of the details of daily life.
