A skeletal body is unearthed in a wooded area of Peterborough, Cambridgeshire. DI James Bliss, together with DC Penny Chandler, investigates the case and discovers that the young female victim had been relocated from her original burial site. A witness is convinced that a young female was struck by a vehicle back in the summer of 1990 and that police attended the scene. However, no record exists of either the accident or the reported victim.
As the case develops, two retired police officers are murdered. The two are linked with others who were on duty at the time a road accident was reported. As Bliss and Chandler delve deeper into the investigation, they start to question whether senior officers may have been involved in the murder of the young women who was buried in the woods. As each link in the chain is put under duress, so is Bliss, who clashes with superiors and the media. When his team receives targeted warnings, Bliss will need to decide whether to drop the case or to pursue those responsible.
Will Bliss walk away in order to keep his career intact, or will he fight no matter what the cost? And is it possible the killer is much closer than they imagined?

This reader treated every comma as a full stop, and it was extremely jarring to follow. There was very nearly no differentiation between characters, so trying to keep them straight was virtually impossible.
The story was unbelievably predictable, and the supposed back stories for the main characters were ridiculously contrived. A cop whose child was kidnapped and still missing in a foreign country?? Another who was a swinger whose spouse was murdered by a spurned lover??
I'm just not a fan.
I really tried to like it...

I feel I should mention that the characters are well done - solid and believable, and Bliss has a detailed enough 'tragic backstory' to flesh him out very well, without harping on about it.
I usually hate criticizing a reader, but he does the story no favours, he made the whole thing seem far more boring than it actually was. A more animated reader would have significantly improved my opinion of the book.
I see the reviews are better on the rest of the books and I would consider reading another one. Overall, I found this first book a bit of a weak offering, and the audiobook to be diminished by a very bland reader.
Not a fantastic first book, but pretty good.
