About the Book

One accident. No survivors. So where are the bodies? This is David Raker's most difficult case yet. Ten seconds before the accident, Cate and Aiden Gascoigne's car is recorded on CCTV. The couple are laughing - happy, untroubled. Then their car plunges into a ninety-foot ravine. The impact should kill them. And if it doesn't, the fire will. As by the time emergency services arrive, it's an inferno. But the fire crews and forensic teams find something impossible. The vehicle is empty. Cate and Aiden are missing. Enter David Raker and his most puzzling case to date . . .

Review :
I much enjoyed Tim Weaver 's latest, The Blackbird. It's a fine addition to an excellent series With the David Raker novels, Tim Weaver has carved out an area of British crime fiction uniquely his own. Unsettling, brilliantly plotted, and satisfyingly complex, these books are unputdownable, and the latest - The Blackbird - is no exception. If you haven't yet met Raker, you're in for a treat I always look forward to a new Raker but The Blackbird blew me away. Brilliantly plotted, deliciously dark and so clever and unpredictable I was left reeling as I turned the last page. I'm already eagerly awaiting Tim Weaver's next. A writer at the top of his game A brilliant missing persons mystery with plenty of intrigue and a jaw-dropping number of twists and turns. Truly excellent Incredibly well-paced, with menacing, clever twists - Raker is back in this stunning read from one of the masters of the genre. Tim Weaver goes from strength to strength and this is his best book yet The impressive Weaver triumphs again with this intricate mystery Shocking, gripping, heart-pounding, The Blackbird is unputdownable . . . Bloody brilliant Taut and immersive, with all the hallmarks of a true crime novel This is the 11th novel by Weaver to feature his widowed sleuth, and the author's casual expertise is firmly in evidence A killer concept, and a twisty, addictive tale. Fabulous! Weaver lives up to his name with this expertly spun web of dark secrets and inexplicable disappearances Praise for Tim Weaver Terrific Thrilling Bliss So many twists and surprises

    A Thrilling But Totally Believable Murder Mystery

    Read this in one evening. I had planned to do other things with my day, but it was impossible to put down. Every time I tried, I was drawn back to it in less than 5 minutes. I sobbed my eyes out the entire last 100 pages. Highly recommend!
