In search of a new life, seventeen-year-old Adriana Clark’s family moves to the ancient, ocean-battered Isle of Mull, far off the coast of Scotland. Then she goes missing. Faced with hostile locals and indifferent police, her desperate parents turn to private investigator Sadie Levesque.

Sadie is the best at what she does. But when she finds Adriana’s body in a cliffside cave, a seaweed crown carefully arranged on her head, she knows she’s dealing with something she’s never encountered before.

The deeper she digs into the island’s secrets, the closer danger creeps – and the more urgent her quest to find the killer grows. Because what if Adriana is not the last girl to die?

My Thoughts:

I am a big fan of Helen’s books, and I couldn’t wait to read this one. The story is set on the Isle of Mull and is about a girl that goes missing there, her family and her have just moved there and next thing she vanishes. But is it as plain as a seventeen year old girl going off on her own? when tragedy strikes the family call in a private investigator called Sadie and she digs deep to uncover the truth on what happened that fateful day. Sadie has a bit of beef with the police so decides to go it alone and work it all out herself. It is a tense and twisty thriller, that has a great pace to it, it kept me on tenterhooks the whole way through and I was trying to work alongside Sadie to uncover the truth. The characters were all great though I did find everyone suspicious and a few were suspects in my eyes. But the ending was so good. It was a great read and I look forward to Helen’s next book.
