A cold case comes back to life in this sixth book in the highly successful Simon Serrailler detective series. Freak weather and flash floods all over southern England. Lafferton is underwater and a landslip on the Moor has closed the bypass. As the rain slowly drains away a shallow grave - and a skeleton - are exposed; twenty years on, the remains of missing teenager Joanne Lowther, have finally been uncovered. The case is re-opened and Simon Serrailler is called in as Senior Investigating Officer. Serrailler is forced to confront a frustrating, distressing and complex situation.

Rezension zu „The Betrayal of Trust “
"What one is aware of throughout is Hill's keen intelligence, the range of her sympathy and the depth of her moral concern. Her novels are always entertaining but are not only entertaintments...That is why reading these novels, which combine good plots with well-drawn characters and intelligent probing of the way we live now, is so enriching." The Scotsman "Hugely enjoyable... This is a satisfying crime story and a fearless examination of controversial issues surrounding terminal illness" -- Carla McKay Daily Mail
