What is ‘perfect’ trying to hide?

Jen Garner tries her best to be ‘wife and mother of the year’. She helps organise school plays and accompanies her husband to company dinners, all with a big smile on her face.

But Jen has started to receive strange gifts in the post ... first flowers, then a sympathy card.

It could just be a joke; that’s what she tells herself. But then the final ‘gift’ arrives, and Jen has to question why somebody is so intent on shattering her life into pieces ...

The streets are no place for a child ...

After a traumatic event that almost ripped Jen Garner’s family apart, life is finally starting to get back to normal.

Then a woman’s body is found in the river. Shortly afterwards, a young boy is discovered wandering the streets. He refuses to speak to anyone, just repeats one name over and over, to the confusion of most of the local authorities –but Jen knows exactly who he’s asking for, and it’s enough to make her blood run cold ...

When a deadly explosion brings secrets and lies to light …

A city shaken to its foundations by a fire in a well-known music venue. A nightclub owner seemingly more concerned about money than the lives of the young people who fill the dance floor at the end of every week. A dangerous bomber still on the loose.

All things that Detective Jen Garner must face in her first week of local level policing whilst trying to start afresh and finally make a break with her past.

Working alongside DI Chris Jackson, it’s crucial that Jen connects the dots to bring the culprit to justice. But it seems that everywhere Jen turns there is somebody with something to hide – and whilst she and her team attempt to unravel a web of lies years in the making, could the bomber be getting ready to strike again?

When politicians and the press peddle dangerous lies, innocent people can find themselves in the firing line …

It was meant to be a night off duty for Jen Garner and Hannah Littlefair, spent celebrating the achievement of a dear old friend in a luxury hotel penthouse suite. But crime doesn’t take a night off, as they’re soon to find out …

When gunshots ring out in the hotel, their fun evening is brought to an abrupt and sickening end as Jen, Hannah and the rest of their party realise they’re in the midst of an escalating situation that is so complex that its ripples are felt far outside the walls of the hotel they are now trapped in.

And what’s worse is that it also involves some of the most vulnerable women and children in the country – people Jen and Hannah have a moral duty to help – and some very dangerous men who believe some very dangerous lies …
