Ten years ago, in the depths of the Finnish winter, Detective Elea Baker’s daughter was taken—and never found.

Now, in the quiet streets of Lincoln, girls are disappearing again. When one is found on the cathedral steps, clutching a chilling clue linked to the decade-old abduction, there’s only one person who can solve the case: Elea.

Dragged back into her nightmare, she’s determined to bring her daughter home this time—no matter the cost.

But is she chasing a ghost, or on the verge of uncovering a truth that will shatter everything?

Praise for The Ice Angels . . .

'Wow… a brilliant thriller with original and multi-layered characters and a story which had me riveted throughout. What a way to launch a new detective! A pure, dark, joy’ John Marrs

'A fast-paced emotional rollercoaster of a book. Loved it' Heidi Perks

'I loved it. Caroline has drawn such unforgettable characters. . . I could literally feel my temperature dropping in the brilliantly tense Finnish scenes' Fiona Barton

‘Atmospheric and dark, compelling and emotional, The Ice Angels is a chilling start to a new series. Fear and dread about what was to come crept under my skin as much as the icy cold temperatures. Loved it, a real page turner' Mel Sherratt
