The search for a missing cop uncovers a dark side of Wales

When her partner DI Ben James disappears with no more than a short goodbye note, journalist Stacey Logan struggles to believe he could be so callous.

But DI Gareth Nettle of Dyfed Powys Police, keen to allocate resources to other cases, seems adamant that he has upped sticks and a search is a waste of time.

Drawing on her own investigative skills, Stacey begins by looking for proof that her partner was abducted. Following sparse evidence and clues to his latest whereabouts, she stumbles on a serious case of what looks like a human trafficking operation taking place right in the heart of Wales.

Is Ben’s disappearance related to it? Is he in danger, or part of the scheme?

When the police relent and look into the case, more gruesome facts are uncovered linking Ben to a dangerous group. It will take all of Stacey’s cool and cunning to trace the connection and find him, dead or alive.
