Tethered to the Dead: A riveting DS Lasser crime novel (The DS Lasser Series Book 3)

At sixteen, Kelly Ramsey has the seemingly perfect life, adored by her wealthy parents; she is popular at school, big heart, big smile, the golden girl who has everything to live for, a successful life mapped out with no dark clouds hovering on the horizon. However, when she fails to return from her school leaver's prom, the lives of those closest to her are thrown into a maelstrom of chaos.

Marshall Brooks was not made this way, the doctor says he is ill, yet people still cross the road when they see him shuffling towards them. Young mothers, glare, and grasp the hands of their children, as if afraid he will somehow spirit them away. When all he wants is to be left alone to pursue his hobby, and like his councillor says, everyone should have a hobby. He knows Kelly Ramsey, has watched her from a distance, marveled at her innocent beauty, pried unseen into her rarefied world. Though he would never harm her, he would never harm any of his girls; even he knows that would be wrong.

As the search for the missing girl unfolds, DS Lasser comes to realise that those closest to her have secrets of their own and that living a life of privilege can come at a price that is impossible to pay. At every turn, he is met with people who have agendas as he tries to uncover the truth amid a web of lies and illusion. From the deputy head of Kelly's exclusive school, to the stepfather of Rachael Sinclair who claims to have been Kelly's closet friend, all seem reluctant to help all have hidden pasts.
Under normal circumstances, it would be difficult enough, but Lasser's boss knows the Ramsey family, has close ties that make it impossible for him to concentrate on the job in hand. As the pressure mounts and DCI Bannister goes into meltdown Lasser realises he is on his own and when the body of a girl is discovered in a local beauty spot, it becomes apparent that someone is determined to keep those secrets buried.
As time runs out and Lasser battles to uncover the truth, he makes discoveries that shock him to the core, as he learns that even tainted blood is thicker than water.
