She's a single parent. A private eye. And liking it. Until, that is, Mrs Hobbs turns up asking Sal Kilkenny to find her missing son. Sal's search takes her through the Manchester underworld, a wasteland of deprivation and petty theft, of well-heeled organised crime and, ultimately, murder. Would she have taken the job on if she had known what she was getting herself into? Actually, yes. Sal is on fire with a desire to see justice done and to avenge the death of a young lad whose only crime was knowing too much...This is the first Sal Kilkenny mystery, serialised on BBC Radio 4's Woman's Hour. Praise for Cath Staincliffe: "A book about courage and compromise, about how sometimes it's kinder and braver to lie. Stunning". (Anne Cleeves). "Modest, compassionate ...a solid ingenious plotter with a sharp eye for domestic detail". ("Literary Review"). "Complex and satisfying". (The Sunday Times). "About as good as the British private eye novel gets". ("Time Out"). "It's always exciting to see a writer get better and better, and Cath Staincliffe is doing just that". (Val McDermid). "an engrossing read". ("Sunday Telegraph").
