Stop at Nothing - 'A switchback ride of a read' Cara Hunter (Martin Lucy)(Paperback / softback)

A detective sargeant is called to investigate the case of Amie Slade, a young teenage girl abused by a caretaker at her leafy suburban school. But in this middle-class town, manicured lawns and picket fences disguise a very different reality. As DS Veronica Delmar digs deeper into the complex case and gets closer to the teenage victim and her family, she begins to discover some uncanny parallels to her own life. But something isn't quite right, and with Amie's family life crumbling and DS Delmar's desperate attempt to juggle work, single mothergood and what remains of her life post-marriage splitting at the seams, it isn't long before the foundations of their lives begin to collapse. Whilst Amie races to protect her dark and shrinking world, DS Delmar must confront her own demons and the part they have to play in the case before her. In a chilling revelation, The First Confession exposes our flaws as human beings and how the prejudices, biases and assumptions we can make can form dangerous conclusions, even about those we love and trust.
