WHAT LIES BENEATH

Detective Mike Nash thought that moving back to Yorkshire from London would give him a quieter life. Little did he know...

Two skeletons are discovered in Lamentation Tarn, a mountain lake.
Talented detective Mike Nash and his team have little evidence with which to work, until a surprising discovery prompts them to contact law enforcement agencies in Eastern Europe.

A joint task force is formed to uncover a criminal network involved in prostitution, drugs, and human trafficking, but Nash's preoccupation with internal politics, as well as with an attractive Russian detective, proves to be a distraction.

Finally, a young victim escapes the gang's clutches, providing Nash with much needed evidence. A search of the neighboring tarn yields evidence of even more heinous crimes.

Who else will die before the criminals are brought to bitter justice?

A breathtaking thriller for fans of JD Kirk, DS Butler, Peter Robinson, J.M. Dalgliesh, Helen Durrant and Rachel McLean.
