Cara Hunter

Omalaatuinen ja nerokas rikosmysteeri heittää haasteen kaikille dekkarifaneille. Osaatko sinä ratkaista rikoksen? Guy Howard menetti isäpuolensa ollessaan 10-vuotias. Ruumis löytyi kotipihalta, ja vaikka Howardin äiti ja sisaret olivat paikalla, kukaan ei nähnyt mitään. Kohuttu tapaus jäi selvittämättä. Kaksikymmentä vuotta myöhemmin Howard ryhtyy tekemään tv-sarjaa, jossa käydään vielä kerran läpi kaikki tutkintaan liittyvät todisteet rikospaikkakuvista ruumiinavausraportteihin. True crime -sarjan lailla etenevässä jännärissä lukija saa tutkittavakseen saman materiaalin kuin dokumenttiryhmän asiantuntijatiimi - ja jokainen tapahtumaan liittynyt ihminen haastatellaan vielä kerran.

Koukuttavassa poliisidekkarissa komisario Adam Fawley huomaa tehneensä aiemmin kohtalokkaan virheen. Vuonna 2016 Adam Fawley tutki kahdeksanvuotiaan Daisyn katoamista. Lopulta tytön äiti tuomittiin lapsensa murhasta. Nyt true crime -sarja Pahamaineisen tuottaja saa vihiä, ettei poliisi selvittänyt silloisessa tutkinnassa aivan kaikkea. Pian löytyy ruumis, joka liittyy tuohon ratkaistuksi luultuun tapaukseen. Mitä Oxfordissa kadonneelle Daisy-tytölle tapahtui, ja miten Fawley saattoi epäonnistua niin traagisella tavalla? Cara Hunter on yksi tämän hetken taitavimmista jännäristeistä, joka on vakuuttanut lukijat Adam Fawley -sarjallaan sekä omaperäisellä Murha perhepiirissä -mysteerillään.
