When young, pretty Eliza Anderson walks through Grace McKenna’s door begging for help finding her missing sister, it sparks the Portobello Detective Agency’s most dangerous investigation to date.
The trail leads Grace and her team to a plush clinic nestled in Scotland’s remote wilderness. On the surface, Whiteadder House seems too good to be true, offering miracle cures and luxury comfort at no cost. But as they dig deeper, the cracks in its gleaming façade start to show.
Before long, Grace and her protégée Hannah are fighting to infiltrate Whiteadder’s inner sanctum, going undercover while racing to uncover its dark secrets. Little do they know that Whiteadder’s founders have been buying influence at the highest levels to keep prying eyes away, and this time Grace is not going to get any help from the police. Has her handsome ex-husband Brodie been compromised too?
With the facility locked down tight and a web of corruption allowing Whiteadder to operate unchecked, Grace must trust her instincts and sacrifice everything to find a way in to save her client’s sister – and, even more difficult, a way out. Then a young woman’s body is found on a nearby beach – could it be linked to the clinic? Grace knows she must find out before more lives are lost...
I loved this book, I couldn’t put it down and finished it in a day! I must confess that this is the first book in the Grace McKenna series that I have read but I will absolutely be going back to read the others.
I really liked Grace, she seems really caring, good at what she does and pretty unstoppable. Which judging by what happens in the book is a good thing! I liked the fact that her office workers clearly care about Grace too as she’s had a lot happening previously but the three of them seem more like family.
The storyline itself does start a little slowly whilst we’re getting the picture and then the action and twists seem to follow rapidly once that scene setting has been done. I really felt for Eliza who was looking for Beth, her sister as she completely blamed herself for how Beth’s life had turned out.
It had me gripped as the storyline developed as there were times when there seemed to be more danger than chances of a positive outcome. I honestly loved it! I can’t right a review without mentioning the star of the show Harvey 🐶 although even he had me worried at one point!
