1. The Fallen Girls – The baby stirred in his blanket as the girl held him tightly to her chest; goosebumps covered her arms. Her bare feet were frozen by the icy stone beneath them, and as she inched slowly along the roof’s balcony, her body shook with fear. She wouldn’t let them take her precious boy.
When the broken body of a seventy-one-year-old woman is found beneath the Humber Bridge, a sign around her neck with the words ‘Pure Evil’ spray-painted in red, Detective Hollie Turner can’t help but wonder – who would want this frail elderly woman dead?
As she starts to delve into the victim’s personal life, Hollie discovers that the woman, Sister Brennan, ran a local mother and baby home at the Church of St Mary and the Angels. The unit may have shut down years ago, but the pain and anguish of those who were forced to give up their babies remains.
The case hits an emotional nerve for Hollie, who was barely twenty when she became a mother and is currently picking up the pieces of her broken marriage and shattered home life.
Determined to uncover the secrets in the home’s dark past, Hollie finds an old photograph of four girls who were there at the same time. Each has their babies taken from them; each have their own harrowing story to tell.
But just as Hollie is beginning to crack the case and link vital clues to Sister Brennan’s murder, an elderly priest is attacked and left for dead in his home. Facing her most complex investigation yet – one steeped in decades of betrayal – can Hollie find the killer before they strike again?
2. Her Last Cry – The woman who entered the police station wore clothes that suggested she was happy to blend into the background. Her voice was softly spoken, almost apologetic, as she uttered the words, ‘I’m here to confess to a murder.’
Detective Hollie Turner is chasing down a suspect connected to the recent murder of Sister Sophia Brennan when she receives a call that someone has confessed to the shocking crime. Hollie should be relieved that this is the end of a gruelling investigation, but her instincts tell her something isn’t right.
As Hollie and her team uncover the truth behind the confession, they discover a web of dark secrets and unspeakable crimes haunting the now-abandoned Church of St Mary and the Angels mother and baby home.
When Hollie starts to receive cryptic messages from a stranger leading her straight to the killer, she makes a disturbing link between her mysterious contact and the terrifying place where girls were sent to give up their babies.
The killer may be within reach, but they’re also tracking Hollie’s every move, and they’re watching her precious children. Can Hollie unmask the murderer before she and her loved ones find themselves in grave danger?
3. The Fifth Girl – She could hear a baby crying. The Sister moved towards her, carrying the tiny newborn wrapped in a soft blue blanket. The girl felt panic rising in her throat as she screamed, ‘Take it away from me!’
Under pressure to solve the murder of Sister Sophia Brennan, Detective Hollie Turner is close to cracking the case and catching the killer when her Deputy Chief Constable, Rose Warburton, goes missing.
It soon becomes clear that Rose has been abducted, and Hollie makes a shocking discovery… Rose’s disappearance is connected to Sister Brennan’s murder investigation.
As Hollie and her team delve further into the lives of the four girls who had their babies forcibly taken at the sinister Church of St Mary and the Angels mother and baby home, Hollie unearths a revelation about a fifth mystery girl and a disturbing secret from Sophia Brennan’s past. A secret so explosive that it threatens to shatter the lives of many.
With Rose’s life hanging in the balance, Hollie is running out of time. Can she finally uncover the truth and stop the killer before they claim their next victim?
