Publisher's summary

On the evening of Saturday, January 15, 1977, a local commuter train is delayed at a small village station by a freak blizzard. Young Nurse Jennifer Evans, keen to get back to her family, plans to walk the last couple of miles to her home in a neighboring village. She phones her daughter to confirm that she’s on her way, but she never arrives home.

In the ensuing police investigation, no trace of Jennifer Evans is ever found. The only evidence is a photograph taken by a fellow passenger of footprints in the snow in front of Holdergate station.

It appears someone was fleeing for their life....

Contacted by Jennifer’s daughter, at first it seems Private Investigator John “Slim” Hardy has no chance of solving a 42-year-old mystery. But as the case begins to unravel, Slim finds himself caught in the center of a whirlwind that will send him spinning to a dramatic conclusion.

Excellent PI Mystery!


This is the 4th book in Jack Benton's Slim Hardy series, and just as riveting as the other three!  I am so rooting for Slim, and his struggle with personal demons can be very hard to observe. The story is excellent, from an author who creates marvelous, unexpected perception shifts in the solving of the mysteries he writes. The characters are sympathetic and become your companions in the reading, and it is hard to let them go. The audiobook version is very well narrated...please read or listen to this book!
