A week before Christmas Debbie Stansfields life falls apart. Her son
- her funny cheeky kind Richard
- has been found hanging from a tree at the Seven Sisters. The police think its suicide but Debbie wont
- cant
- accept it. Her son would never kill himself. Not her Richard. No way. Richards four friends know something about his death. Detective Inspector Lorraine Hunt can feel it. The teenagers are clearly terrified about something
- something that scares them more than the police. But theyre not about to tell... As the days tick down to Christmas Lorraine increasingly overworked & under pressure cant ignore her suspicions that theres more to Richards death than meets the eye. & when Richards friends start going missing her worst fears are confirmed. Just who is preying on the young people in Houghton-le-Spring? & will Lorraine be able to stop them before another vulnerable teenager is found dead?
