''A darkly deceptive, twisting, masterful mystery. Gytha Lodge should be on every crime fiction fan''s must read list'' Chris Whitaker

*******
Aisling''s two sons, Ethan and Finn, mean everything to her.

Ever since becoming estranged from her own parents, though, she''s always felt like a piece of her is missing.

Desperate to find answers - about her family, and herself - Aisling uploads her DNA to an ancestry website, and is thrilled when it finds a match.

But instead of finding answers, she comes face to face with a detective. Aisling''s DNA is a match for a recent crime scene - the latest in a string of murders by a dangerous serial killer, known as ''the bonfire killer''. And the police have three lead suspects: her father, or one of her two sons.
