About this ebook

From the New York Times bestselling author of Little Girl Lost comes a brand-new thriller featuring Lucy Black—a twisting, gripping story of secrets and lies, perfect for fans of Louise Penny and Tana French.

The body of an elderly man is hauled out of the rushing water of the River Foyle, cold dead. Detective Lucy Black is called in to investigate when it becomes evident that this was not a suicide: the man's body was embalmed before it ever entered the water.

Confounded and exhausted, Lucy heads home to review the case in quiet; but there will be no rest for her tonight. She's barely in the front door when a neighbor knocks because his wife's sister has been attacked and they need her help.

As a string of strange crimes is unspooled throughout the city, Lucy is pulled in countless different directions… until she realizes there may be something dark and dangerous connecting everything.

Soulful and suspenseful, featuring one of the most appealing characters in suspense fiction, The Forgotten Ones is a novel to take your breath away.

This is the second book I've read by the author . Enjoyed it just as much as the first . Lucy Black as the main character, is easy to identify with. She's a working woman with her own set of problems, but great compassion for those she meets in doing her job as a police woman. The description of her surroundings and the additional characters are well written and solidly add to the story. I highly recommend it to those who like a good mystery novel.

Having read the other 2 Lucy Black novels, I felt this one was a little bit of a let down. Some things felt unfinished in it. I would certainly recommend it, it was a good read. I would also enjoy more Lucy Black novels, the characters are good & the books definitly have a good plot to keep you reading/wanting more.

Better than crime novels that cost 3 or 4 times as much. Only downside is sometimes Irish English is very different from American English; a person's weight is measured in stones, and some apparently common Irish words are foreign to us.
