Rate this book
Some people survive when they shouldn't.
Someone is making sure they don't get a second chance.


Detective Sergeant Maddy Frost fled London's chaos for Whitby's quiet streets. She needed peace. She needed distance from the cases that broke her.

But when bodies start appearing, victims who all escaped death once before, Maddy sees a pattern no one else believes. Accidents, they say. Coincidence.

She knows better.

The investigation pulls her deeper into something darker than she imagined. Roses appear on her doorstep. Anonymous warnings. A watcher in the mist. Someone wants her to stop asking questions. Someone who believes they're correcting fate's mistakes.

And they're willing to kill to prove they're right.

In Whitby, the fog hides more than secrets.

An atmospheric British crime thriller perfect for fans of Ann Cleeves and Val McDermid.
