Ann Cleeves' Detective Vera Stanhope makes a triumphant return with this next spellbinding installment in her much-applauded series, brought to life by Brenda Blethyn in the hit TV series Vera.

The shouts and laughter of Christmas revelers break the muffled silence as Detective Joe Ashworth and his daughter Jessie are swept along onto the Metro. But when the train is stopped due to the bad weather, Jessie notices that one lady hasn't left the train: she has been fatally stabbed.

Then, just days later, a second woman is murdered. Vera finds herself searching deep into the hidden past, led by clues that keep revolving around one street . . .Why are the residents of Harbour Street so reluctant to speak?
