Accused cover

In Accused, the disappearance of Cassie Booth leads to a gripping investigation, where two men become suspects in a web of deceit and danger.

In Accused, the sudden disappearance of young Cassie Booth sends shockwaves through her community. As the investigation unfolds, her bloodstained jacket is discovered in a boathouse associated with Karl Wilding, raising alarm bells. However, the evidence against him is scant, leaving authorities in a precarious position. Detective Inspector Pat North finds himself drawn into a seemingly routine visit to address the complaints of Stephen Warrington, a persistent local resident. What begins as a simple inquiry quickly spirals into a sinister situation that threatens to unravel everything.

As Detective North delves deeper into Warrington's obsessive behavior, he begins to suspect that Warrington may be entangled in something far darker than mere complaints. The tension builds as North navigates a complex web of deception, trying to discern the truth about Cassie's fate. The stakes rise as both men become suspects in a case that is not just about a missing girl, but about the very nature of justice itself.

Ultimately, Accused challenges readers to consider the intricacies of guilt and innocence. With twists and turns that keep you guessing, the narrative explores how easily the lines can blur between victim and perpetrator. As the jury grapples with the evidence, will they be able to see through the lies and deliver the justice that Cassie deserves?
