A cold case buried by power. A woman erased by history. And a forensic profiler who refuses to let her die forgotten. When Dr. Charlie Morrow agrees to look into the decades-old murder of Ginger Rae-a beloved Soho walk-up girl whose death was dismissed and quietly buried-she expects a dead end. What she finds instead is a live fuse. Ginger Rae wasn't just a sex worker. She was a fighter, an activist, a protector of queer youth and immigrant girls in 1990s London. And someone wanted her gone. Someone with enough money, influence, and police cooperation to make the case disappear. As Charlie digs deeper, old Soho stirs with whispers: corrupt councilmen, a powerful developer with a vicious moral crusade, and a son imprisoned by his own secrets. The deeper she ventures, the more she realizes Ginger Rae's story was rewritten by the powerful-and Charlie might be the first person in thirty years willing to tell it right. But corruption has a long memory. And those who silenced Ginger Rae once are willing to do so again. With the help of her loyal dog Moose, two battle-scarred detectives, and a literary historian who refuses to let Soho's ghosts fade, Charlie races to expose every layer of corruption-past and present. The truth will break families, topple legacies, and threaten Charlie's own fragile peace. Some stories refuse to stay buried. And Charlie Morrow will make sure Ginger Rae's is one of them. Perfect for readers of Tana French, Ann Cleeves, and Val McDermid, this atmospheric psychological crime novel blends emotional depth, queer history, and unflinching suspense into a story about whose lives get remembered-and whose are erased.
