This book is a mystery about a cold case disappearance of a young boy in Cornwall, England. A woman detective, who is temporarily suspended from her job for alleged misconduct, visits her grandfather who has recently moved to Cornwall after the death of his wife.  While there she becomes interested in what happened when the young boy disappeared.

The book is well-written but didn’t seem to offer much in the way of suspense as the disappearance occurred many years in the past.  Much of the narrative delves into the motives and thoughts of persons who had been dead for many years.  Additionally, the final resolution of the mystery depends, as many mysteries seem to do, on a somewhat hard to believe coincidence.
