Lies Beneath the Mynd by Saskia van der Zee
English | 2026 | Mystery & Thriller
‘No one even noticed he was missing. That’s the worst of it.’
The Long Mynd in deep winter. A vast, ancient plateau of heather and rock rising above the small Shropshire town of Church Stretton, its hidden valleys locked in snow, its single-track roads treacherous with ice.
When a car is found abandoned in a remote hollow below the Burway, DI Georgie Fraser is pulled into the search for its driver. Nineteen-year-old Sam Gray has been missing for four days, after an illegal party on top of the hill. Then a body is found in one of the Mynd’s most inaccessible valleys. It is not Sam. And nobody, it emerges, has reported this second young man missing. Nobody even noticed he was gone.
As Georgie unravels a web of secrets, she discovers that the boys’ connection runs far deeper than anyone knew. And that on the Long Mynd, the truth can be as difficult to reach as the most inaccessible valley. Everyone is lying. And the consequences of their silence are still unfolding in the snow.
