When one child is found and another is lost, a British police detective is pulled into a dark underworld as she tries to find a connection . . . DS Jan Pearce has become the go-to for missing persons cases--even though she has yet to find her son who disappeared. So when an abandoned toddler in a stroller is found in an alleyway, Jan is put in charge. She doesn't yet know that the little girl's mother, Lisa, is being manipulated by a criminal gang. All Lisa wants is her child back.
When another kid is abducted, the events, at first, don't seem to be linked. Lisa, however, knows otherwise. Determined to somehow get word to DS Pearce, she puts herself in grave danger. But will the message reach Jan before it's too late for all of them?
