(DI Paton Investigates: Book two)
by Kerena Swan
Every mother’s worst nightmare
It was only for a couple of minutes, while dropping Noah off at nursery. Little did Melanie realise that leaving her sleeping son in the car would end up being the biggest regret of her life.
A teenage challenge turns sour
For teenager Woody, stealing cars with his new friend helps alleviate the tedium of a life of poverty and boredom. This isn’t what he wants to do with his life but for now, he feels accepted. Except on this occasion, his actions have consequences that could change his life forever. Is it too late to turn his life around?
How far would you go to save those you love?
While DI Paton is on the case of the missing child, he is quickly drawn into a web of deception that hits dangerously close to home. He soon finds himself torn in two, not knowing which way to turn: save his career or his family? Will he be able to crack the case before he himself cracks?

REVIEW
This was brilliant! From start to finish I was hooked, when two teenagers steal a car they get more than they bargained for when they discover a child in the back seat! In a panic they abandon him in a field and carry on taking the car to their destination. One of the boys is wracked with guilt about leaving the wee guy out in the cold that he goes back to look for him but cant find him.
DI Paton is a down to earth guy with real family struggles and that is was made me warm to him, his wife is away looking after her sick mother whilst he is working a case and juggling the unexpected closure of his sons school. And when gets switched to the missing child case he soon discovers there is more threads connections a web together that sees his son get in danger. DI Paton faces the dilemma of putting his career before his family or risk his family in doing so.
I don’t want to spoil this but I was such a great story set not far from me, which made it even better!
5 stars!
