About the Book:
When a baby is stolen from a Scottish beach, private investigator Charlie Cameron 
reluctantly agrees to take the case.
While her parents are just yards away, thirteen-month-old Lily Hamilton is abducted from Ayr beach in Scotland. Three days later, her distraught father turns up at private investigator Charlie Cameron’s office. Mark Hamilton believes he knows who has taken his daughter. And why.
Against his better judgment, Charlie takes the case—and when bodies are discovered, he suspects this may not be an isolated crime. Is there a serial killer whose work has gone undetected for decades? Is baby Lily his latest victim? Charlie won’t be able to give up on this case. Memories and guilt from his childhood won’t let him…
Owen Mullen is a best-selling author of psychological and gangland thrillers. His fast-paced, twist-aplenty stories are perfect for all fans of Robert Galbraith, Ian Rankin and Ann Cleeves.
My Review:
If you enjoy gripping crime thrillers, then this series is one you MUST pick up! The MC Charlie Cameron is both sympathetic and likable.
From the opening scene, my emotions were completely engaged! I was so angry with the selfish mother in the first scene and was furious with the events that transpired after.
The approach that Charlie takes throughout the investigation had me completely engrossed in this book. It was difficult for me to put it down and do ‘life stuff’. Without giving anything away, I can safely say that I highly recommend this book and wish I could do ½ stars as this one deserves 4 ½ stars without a doubt!! And on to Book 2 I go. 😊
