NO ONE BELIEVED THE GIRLS.
BUT BONES DON'T LIE...

The clock is ticking for Superintendent Jo Hamilton, who is just days from retirement from Sussex Police when the discovery of the bones of a young woman takes her back to a tragic unsolved case she worked on as WPC in the 1970s: the disappearance of a teenage girl from a notorious local children's home, not long after another young resident died in suspicious circumstances.

Jo is determined track down the victim's sister, convinced that re-opening the hushed-up wrongs of the past will uncover the truth of the girls' deaths. But will the trail lead her disturbingly close to home?
