From Sunday Times No.1 bestseller Martina Cole, comes a gripping crime drama featuring the fearless Joanie Brewer, whose her need for revenge threatens to destroy even the ones she loves.

Joanie Brewer's children are everything to her. She gives them all the love she can, but she's brought them into a tough world. Her son Jon Jon is already up to his neck in a life of crime and her daughter Jeanette is more streetwise than a fourteen-year-old should be. Her youngest Kira, though, is too sweet and too innocent for their dark world.

Joanie does her best to protect her baby. But when Kira disappears, Joanie's real nightmare begins.
