A complex psychological thriller packed with suspense and a plot that twists and turns like an octopus.

On 7th July 2005, a man disappears, believed dead, in the London bombings. Some years later, a freelance journalist recognizes his photograph in a newspaper - the man she has just seen in a café. From that second, Alice’s life will be changed forever in ways she could never have foreseen. Immediately she is pitched into a race against time that takes her from London, across Britain and into the heart of a mystery - the reason for his disappearance on that fateful day.

Spurred on by her unwavering belief in his innocence regarding an unsolved murder on the eve of the bombings, she begins to question the official version of events and to challenge the mindset and motivation of those also seeking him. Then other developments begin to overshadow her search for the truth which becomes a frantic battle for her own survival. For Inspector Jim Rodgers, this had been his final, most agonizing case: a murder with no murderer, an inquiry ending in dead-lock and unfinished business, the aftermath still haunting him down the years.

The tragedy begins on seventh of July 2005. But it does not stop there. Fate catches up with everyone...in the end.
