The disappearance of Lyndsey Barratt - John Wilson

A powerful tale of a vengeance gone out of control from a bright new British thriller-writing talent.

In his acclaimed dbut novel, Turmfalke, John Wilson deployed old-fashioned storytelling skills to create a thoroughly modern thriller. Now he takes the reader on an unforgettable rollercoaster ride in a powerful new tale of psychological suspense.

Lyndsey Barratt, a young student actress, is brutally attacked in a train and left for dead by a school sports team high on drugs. She survives, but disappears from hospital before DI Frank Illiffe can press charges. Seven years later, a journalist makes the disturbing connection that most of the team members have died in grisly circumstances. Someone is exacting a terrible revenge for their unpunished crimes. And only one member of the team remains alive.
