Unseen cover

Can a true crime podcaster track down a killer hiding in plain sight?

Bella Davies is cooking dinner for her family when she hears a voice she hasn't heard in a long time. She collapses in shock. The man being interviewed on the television murdered her mother and sisters.
The crime shocked the nation thirty-seven years ago. Back then, a man confessed and pleaded guilty to the crime, leaving Bella and her father to move on with their lives as best they could. But now Bella knows: they got the wrong guy.
Podcaster Cal Lovett is trying to move on from his own demons, putting the past behind him and focusing on building a new life. But then Bella shows up on his doorstep and he knows he can never truly move on...
A dark and thrilling crime fiction novel set in Scotland. Perfect for fans of Jane Casey, Claire Douglas and Neil Lancaster.

Cal Lovett is back with his latest case. A brutal murder of a woman and her two children, where the man in prison may not be the perpetrator after all. I have loved all these books – each one with a unique story, but all written with the same heart and exquisite prose. I will miss Cal but I can’t wait to read what Heather writes next. A perfect end to a beautiful series. * Louisa Scarr *
