From the Back Cover
It is the summer of 1976, the hottest summer on record.
In the heart of London’s bustling East End lies a tight-knit community of families.
But in the sweltering heat, a young girl called Chantal is snatched on her way home from school. The carefree and traditional way of life is shattered when her lifeless body is found. Then young Adam Ballantyne goes missing from his garden. As his mother frantically searches for the four year-old boy, panic creeps in and so the nightmare begins.
A series of horrific assaults on young children spreads through the neighbourhood, each one more brutal; there is only so much this close community can take. As they cling to one another for hope and survival, it is the women who take control. In a battle to protect their families and win back the innocence of their children.
