By Barbara Speake

A death in a residential unit for people with complex needs triggers an undercover assignment for Annie. In a sister unit, Ellie Harrington, a student journalist is doing voluntary work and begins to suspect that something is wrong, very wrong. For both women, ascertaining what is really going on behind closed doors becomes the highest priority, but will Ellie Harrington's naive enthusiasm jeopardise the work that Annie is doing. Could both women find themselves in grave danger from a very powerful and ruthless set of conspirators? At the core of it, are the vulnerable residents simply too scared to tell their stories.
