Ewan Stokes disappeared after a football match in Ipswich 15 years ago. No one knows where he went but every year on the anniversary of his disappearance random mysterious sightings are reported across Europe. Since Ewan vanished a fanatical online following has grown up around the mystery. The cult believes Stokesy is coming back. And he wants payback. When police are alerted to acts of violence that seem to be linked to the mystery they fear that the online hysteria has ramped up at the prospect of Stokesy's return - a pressure that mounts when Maisie Ewan's ex-girlfriend finds herself targeted by a series of sinister attacks. As tension grows psychologist Dr Cora Lael working with the South Suffolk CID is called upon to help protect Maisie. But as the anniversary grows nearer can they stop Stokesy in his tracks. . .before he wreaks his revenge?

Part of the Cora Lael series.
