The police are chasing shadows in the search for eight-year-old Hannah Perry. But psychologist Cora Lael has a gift—one that could be the girl’s only chance of survival.

When Hannah disappears from the sleepy Suffolk village of St Just, the close-knit community is shaken to its core. Acting DS Rob Minshull, haunted by an eerily similar case from seven years ago, leads the investigation. But with the police meeting dead end after dead end, time is running out.

Cora Lael has spent her life hiding from her rare gift—the ability to sense emotions imprinted on objects. Yet when she’s handed Hannah’s belongings, she hears the girl’s piercing scream. She knows Hannah is alive, but the clock is ticking.

With the shadow of past tragedies hanging over them, can Cora and Rob stop history from repeating itself? Or will the truth come too late to save a child’s life?
