The Shrouded Path

The past won't stay buried forever.November, 1957: Six teenage girls walk in the churning Derbyshire mists, the first chills of winter in the air.

So who was Valerie? Where does her obsession spring from?DC Connie Childs, off balance after her last big case, is partnered up with new arrival to Bampton, Peter Dahl. Following up on what seems like a simple natural death, DC Childs' old instincts kick in, pointing her right back to one cold evening in 1957.
