Mercedes is a painter who becomes a journalist to expose it.
What could go wrong?
ENGLAND, YORK, 2019
Award-winning journalist Janey Stuart is about to be promoted to Assistant Editor of The York BET Newspaper. But the week it’s all supposed to come together, Janey finds herself in court defending Sean Caron, a man she helped cover up a disappearance twenty years ago...
Janey thinks she’s the only one who knows what happened to eighteen-year-old Amelia Cross on that fateful night in 1999, but there’s somebody else, Mercedes, a woman who has been searching for Janey and wants to expose the truth.
As twisted truths of that night start to untangle, Janey has no choice but to stop Mercedes from revealing the truth, which could cost not only her reputation and career, but the rest of her life...
In Izak Hannard's first psychological thriller, mysteries unwind in this dark and humorous debut, set in the UK city of York in 2019 and 1999.
"I wanted to write and publish this book as a celebration of independence and identity in a world of conformity. It was a no-brainer for this particular story to be set in York. It is one of my favourite places to visit and brings back so many cherished childhood memories of exploring the shambles, the famous York Minster and the streets that are so enriched with a fascinating history. I really enjoyed writing this story for some much-needed humour and escapism. With laugh out loud moments and controversial characters, hopefully this book will provide some comfort and joy to anyone who reads it." - Izak Hannard
