Harm Done- 1999

Shortly after Lizzie Cromwell returns from the dead, another young woman disappears, just as a convicted paedophile is released back into the community. Local residents are up in arms, and even prepared to take the law into their own hands...
Chief Inspector Wexford is not only concerned very personally with the effects of violence and prejudice, but is involved with a new programme to help the victims of domestic violence. His daughter, Sylvia, whose marriage is in difficulties, has also come to work nearby in a refuge for battered women.
After those early disappearances, two far more serious crimes are committed which will affect the lives and attitudes of police and public alike.

The Babes in the Wood - 2002

A couple Roger and Karina Dade returns from a weekend in Paris to find their two teenage children and the baby-sitter have disappeared. With the area around the town of Kingsmarkham flooded, the mother and Chief Inspector Wexford's superior both think they have drowned - but when the "Subaqua" frogmen find nothing Wexford's intuitions are confirmed. Are the children babes in the wood or are they no innocents? Are they still alive? In any event, their disappearance will catalyse the breakup of several marriages.
