|summary=It wasn't that Christine Brett was exactly nosy, but life hadn't treated her particularly kindly recently. Her marriage had ended in divorce and she'd lost her job. Here she was, middle-aged and back living with her mother. And checking that people were not breaking the law was a ''duty'' not a ''pleasure''. Admittedly some of her accusations had been wide of the mark, but she had been a witness when the robbers left the hypermarket and the face of the driver of the getaway car was familiar - if only she could place it. Unfortunately Christine had cried wolf too often and the local police weren't too inclined to give her much credence.

The book is split into two parts. Part one takes place in the late 1980s while part two takes place in the early 2000s. In the first part we meet Tom Kingsmill, born and bred in Dalmore. Tom participates in a race with his local running club. Part of the race route Tom is expected to run leads over the newly-built bridge connecting Dalmore with the outside world. This bridge is the one Reverend McFarren has an obsessive hatred for. He believes the bridge is a bad omen after two teenagers jumped to their deaths just the month before. No one could have predicted the way in which the reverend's hunch is proved correct. Tom fails to finish the race - in fact, he has vanished entirely.
