The dark wives [large print] / Ann Cleeves.

Cleeves, Ann, (author).

Summary:

"The man's body is found in the park outside Rosebank, a home for troubled teens in the coastal village of Longwater. DI Vera Stanhope is called out to investigate the death, with her only clue being the disappearance of one of the home's residents, fourteen-year-old Chloe Spence. When a second connected body is found near the Three Dark Wives monument in the wilds of the Northumberland countryside, superstition and folklore begin to collide with fact. Vera knows she has to find Chloe to get to the truth, and the dark secrets in their community that may be far more dangerous than she could have ever believed possible."-- Back cover.
