A house of secrets. A child in danger. And the clock is ticking...
A corpse, burned beyond recognition, has been uncovered in a vacant warehouse in Southwark... A young, beautiful hospital administrator has vanished without a trace, her past a mystery to even her closest friend...

Deborah Crombie: In a Dark House (USA 2005)

From the Publisher:
An abandoned Southwark warehouse burns next door to a women's shelter for victims of spousal abuse. Within it lies the charred corpse of a female body burned beyond all recognition. At the same time, workers at Guy's Hospital anxiously discuss the disappearance of a hospital administrator -- a beautiful, emotionally fragile young woman who's vanished without a trace.

And in an old, dark, rambling London house, nine-year-old Harriet's awful fears won't be silenced -- as she worries about her feuding parents, her schoolwork... and the strange woman who is her only companion in this scary, unfamiliar place.

Gemma James and Duncan Kincaid -- lovers and former partners -- have their own pressing concerns. But they must put aside private matters to investigate these disturbing cases. Yet neither Gemma nor Duncan realize how closely the cases are connected -- or how important their resolutions will be for an abducted young child who is frightened, alone... and in serious peril.
