PRAISE FOR LUCY MARTIN:
‘A switchback ride of a read’ — Cara Hunter

A stolen child. A missing woman. You can only save one. The second in the DS Ronnie Delmar series.

My second in the series is all about police priorities – As a detective you’d prioritise a missing child over a missing adult woman, right? But what if the key to finding the child is…. Exactly. Alongside the dilemmas of law-enforcement decision-making, The Choice is also a deep dive into the world of religious cults and the abuse of women and girls who endure exploitation and violence behind closed doors in a self-governing community without recourse to justice. This sort of thing still goes on today and needs to stop.
