Dundee, December 1879. Ann Craig is waiting for her husband to return home when she sees the newly built iron rail bridge across the River Tay collapse. The train her husband is travelling on plunges into the icy water, killing all those on board. But as Ann investigates the events leading up to the crash, doubt is cast on whether Robert was on the train, after all. And if he wasn’t, where is he? Who is the mysterious woman who is first to be washed ashore? In the present day, Fiona Craig’s new partner, Pete, an Australian restaurateur, clears the couple’s bank account before abandoning his car at Dundee Airport and disappearing. When the police discover his car is stolen, Fiona conducts her own investigation into Pete’s background, slowly uncovering dark secrets and strange parallels with the events of 1879. This is a brilliant historical mystery from Sue Lawrence, based on the true story of the Tay Rail Bridge Disaster, meticulously researched and densely plotted, with plenty of twists and turns and a gripping climax.
