FWPC Janet Morris is in trouble – in her own police station – and even Kate Baeier is unable to help her.
Is it because WPC Morris can’t call for help?
Or is it something even more sinister?
After five years abroad as a war reporter, interviewing Chief Superintendent Ellis for a personality piece should be straightforward for Kate Baeier. And it is. Until she hears of WPC Morris’ alleged rape – in Ellis’ station – and begins to ask quetions. Evasions and silence quickly turn to threats as Kate, tenacious – and sometimes reckless – pursues all increasingly terrifying collision course with the truth.
