After nearly drowning in a deadly riptide, Private Investigator Kate Marshall wakes up in hospital—shaken, scarred, and questioning everything. There, she meets Jean, an elderly woman haunted by the unsolved disappearance of her three-year-old grandson, Charlie, who vanished during a family camping trip on Dartmoor over a decade ago.
When Jean begs Kate to investigate, she reluctantly agrees. But what starts as a favor soon becomes an obsession.
With her partner Tristan by her side, Kate retraces the events of that fateful night—and quickly uncovers cracks in the family’s story. The boy was last seen near Devil’s Way, a fast-flowing river that disappears into a treacherous gorge. Did Charlie fall? Or was something far more sinister at play?
Then, they make a shocking discovery: a social worker, who once raised red flags about Jean and her daughter, was brutally murdered shortly after Charlie vanished. As the investigation deepens, it becomes clear that someone is willing to kill to keep the truth buried.
And the closer Kate gets to the answers, the more dangerous the path becomes.
Dark, atmospheric, and relentlessly suspenseful, Devil’s Way is the fourth novel in the multi-million bestselling Kate Marshall series by Robert Bryndza.
Can be read as a standalone.
