The first in a new series from bestselling crime author, Wes Markin! To Detective Chief Inspector Frank Black they’re not just forgotten bones. They’re forgotten hopes. Forgotten dreams. The forgotten voice of an angel. When buried bones are unearthed by a storm in North Yorkshire’s picturesque coastal town of Whitby, Frank is drawn into an investigation that takes him back to the late eighties and the fiery demise of a popular pub. Frank is no stranger to vulnerability. With a shattered daughter, he lives with it. With an outsider in Detective Inspector Gerry Carver, he works with it. And in Charlotte Wilson, a young, eighteen-year-old musician discarded and buried near the old whalebones of Whitby, he recognises it. At sixty-four, Frank really should be retiring. But Charlotte had hopes and dreams. And nobody should be allowed to silence the voice of an angel. Bestselling Wes Markin is back with the start of an exciting new series, perfect for fans of David Gatward, JD Kirk, Rachel McLean, JM Dalgleish and Simon McCleave. 'Take shelter!
