Summary

YOU’LL NEVER FIND ME…

A twisty, compelling, characterful crime thriller from a major new talent.

NOT TO BE MISSED!

A distraught mother…
When Susan Wilkins walks into No Stone Unturned, Leeds’s newest private detective agency, owners Lee and Jo are thrilled. Their first client is the kind of person they always hoped to help—a kind woman desperately worried about her son, Jack.

A missing son…
The case seems simple—kid starts college, takes up with the wrong crowd, forgets to ring his mother. But very quickly, Lee and Jo suspect they’re not being told the whole truth.

A case which could prove deadly…
Their office is ransacked, everyone who knows Jack refuses to talk to them and they feel like they’re being followed…it’s clear Lee and Jo have stumbled into something bigger, and far more dangerous, than they ever expected. Will they find Jack, or will their first case silence them both for good?

Critic reviews

“I adored this fresh and fearless duo of private investigators, wise-cracking their way along the mean streets of Leeds in this rollicking crime caper” Rachel Sargeant, author of The Perfect Neighbours

‘Lee and Jo are my two best girl heroes! Harper has in these two PI's created a team that I think will endure for a long time. I loved the humour that Harper imbued every page with. At the most poignant of moments, the gritty, down to earth humour had me chuckling’ Liz Mistry, author of Unquiet Souls

‘Absolutely brilliant crime read. Gripping and wittily written. Two kick-ass female protagonists. This book is a brilliant high-wire of a novel – it has plenty of twists and turns, but it also has believable complex characters, and is also really very funny. Would recommend this to anyone’ SJ Bradley, author of Guest

Superb debut

A couple of years ago I read book 2 in this series, not knowing that there was a previous book. So I thought it was time that I found out how the No Stone Unturned agency started,

I loved everything about it. I love the two main characters, Lee and Jo, who are both strong women, though very different with their own backstories, and also best friends. I love that the book is set in my hometown of Leeds, and in Woodhouse, the area where I grew up. I knew all the streets and pubs that were mentioned! The storyline is an action packed rollercoaster ride, and sometimes laugh out loud funny. There were plenty of twists, making it a 'just one more chapter' book.

I really, really hope that Ali Harper writes a third book soon!

I enjoyed the narration by Thom Petty, but feel the book should have had a female narrator.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
