"Le Derbyshire : une des régions les plus reculées, les plus sauvages d'Angleterre. Une des plus froides, aussi. En décembre 1963, le hameau de Scardale a vu disparaître une des jeunes filles du village. Impossible d'imaginer une fugue. Alors un enlèvement, pire, un assassinat ?..."
"On a freezing day in December 1963, Alison Carter vanishes from her rural village, an insular community that distrusts the outside world. For the young George Bennett, a newly promoted inspector, it is the beginning of his most difficult and harrowing case--a suspected murder with no body, an investigation with more dead ends and closed faces than he'd have found in the anonymity of the inner city, and an outcome that reverberates through the years. Decades later Bennett finally tells his story to journalist Catherine Heathcote, but just when the book is poised for publication, he unaccountably tries to pull the plug. He has new information that he refuses to divulge, new information which threatens the very foundations of his existence. Catherine is forced to reinvestigate the past, with results that turn the world upside down."@en
