Sight Unseen

Más información sobre el libro

On a summer day in 1981, two-year-old Tamsin Hall was abducted during a picnic at Avebury, while her seven-year-old sister Miranda was killed by the abductor’s van. Their nanny, Sally Wilkinson, witnessed the tragedy. David Umber, a Ph.D. student, was at the village pub waiting for a man named Griffith, who promised to assist him with his research on the letters of “Junius,” but Griffith never arrived. Tamsin was never found, and the Hall family disintegrated under the emotional toll. Sally later moved in with Umber, but she struggled with depression and ultimately took her own life. In spring 2004, retired Chief Inspector George Sharp receives a letter signed “Junius,” criticizing his handling of the 1981 case. Sharp confronts Umber, whose alibi has always seemed questionable. Although he must accept Umber's denial of being the letter's author, Sharp insists they work together to uncover the truth behind the long-hidden events of that fateful day. As they delve deeper, both men come to realize that some mysteries are better left unsolved, leading them down a path they may come to regret.
