The Chosen Ones (Paperback)
Howard Linskey (author)Published: 14/06/2018
Eva Dunbar wakes in a large metal box.
She has no idea who has taken her.
She has no way out.
She isn't the first young woman to disappear.
And with no leads Detective Ian Bradshaw has precious little time.
When at last a body is found, the police hope the tragic discovery might at least provide a clue that will help them finally find the kidnapper.
But then they identify the body - and realise the case is more twisted than they ever imagined . . .
