Description

A year after losing his wife in a tragic accident during a family vacation in Madeira, Simon is trying to rebuild his life with his young son Dan in a peaceful village on the outskirts of Cardiff.

But beneath the calm surface of their new community, a sinister presence lurks. A predator is targeting the village’s most vulnerable children. His twisted mission: to make them smile... at any cost.

After having children, Lee Coates almost gave up on his dream of writing a novel, as spare time became a rare commodity. However, a lightbulb moment struck during one of his sons' extracurricular activities. Those seemingly endless minutes didn’t have to be wasted. Now, he can often be found writing by the side of football pitches and tennis courts in his hometown of Cardiff. Lee enjoys crafting psychological thrillers that keep readers guessing until the very last page.
