Først med solohistorien, først til at afdække sandheden – og denne gang er ingen undtagelse. Men hun kan ikke lade være med at tænke på sin egen søn, som hun ikke har set i to år, siden han forlod hjemmet for at rejse. Denne gang er det personligt.Og mens sagen om de forsvundne piger udvikler sig, finder de alle ud af, at selv så langt væk hjemmefra kan faren være tættere på, end de tror ...”Denne fortælling er fuld af spændende twist … vil teste Kate og hendes modstridende loyalitetsforhold lige til grænsen.

Fortræffelig!”– Shari Lapena“I samme tradition som Kvinden,der forsvandt og Kvinden i toget leverer Mistænkt et dystert plot og karakterer, som ikke er specielt rare.

Hemmeligheder har en dragende magt. De er uimodståelige, fordi de pirker til den frygt, vi har for, hvor lidt vi egentlig ved om hinanden. Vi har alle hemmeligheder – gerninger eller tanker vi ikke ønsker andre skal kende. For de fleste af os er hemmelighederne pinlige, men uskyldige. Men for nogle truer hemmelighederne med at ødelægge alting. Da et gammelt skelet af et nyfødt barn graves fri på en byggeplads, nævnes det blot i en notits i lokalavisen. Men for tre kvinder, der aldrig har mødt hinanden, er den umulig at ignorere. For én kvinde er det en påmindelse om det værste, der nogensinde er sket for hende. For den anden kvinde medfører den en farlig risiko for at hendes mørkeste hemmelighed vil blive afsløret. Og for den tredje kvinde er det startskuddet til en jagt på at afdække sandheden. Barnets historie vil blive fortalt. Hvem var barnet? Hvad skete der med det? Hvorfor blev liget skjult? Hvem kendte til det? Ny forrygende spændingsroman af Fiona Barton, som debuterede med Enken, der udkom på dansk sidste år. Vi møder igen journalist Kate Waters, som også optrådte i Enken, men uden at hun er hovedperson i nogen af bøgerne, som derfor uden problemer kan læses uafhængigt af hinanden.
