A stunning new psychological thriller. Claire Wilson knows what she saw: on the eighth floor of a derelict tower block, a woman was bottle-feeding a baby. But why would anyone take a baby into a boarded-up tower block? And why are children disappearing? In an area of Manchester plagued by unexplained tragedies, Claire's only allies are a pagan witch, a wild-child party girl, and a husband with too many secrets. 'Johnston offers us a wonderfully gripping read, but also a compassionate and moving story of people struggling to survive at the margins of a rapidly changing city.' - Crimeculture
