Some things can never be forgiven... Daniel Hunter has spent years defending lost causes as a solicitor in London. But his life changes when he is introduced to Sebastian, an eleven-year-old accused of murdering an innocent young boy. As he plunges into the muddy depths of Sebastian's troubled home life, Daniel thinks back to his own childhood in foster care—and to Minnie, the woman who adopted him and whose love saved him, until she, too, betrayed him so badly that he cut her out of his life. As chilling facts emerge and Daniel is confronted with a death that unearths memories he'd long buried, past and present collide. What happened to the little boy in the park? And what happened all those years before to cause Daniel to shut out his only lifeline?
