A deadly crash. A silent witness. A killer who won't stop.
Detective Liz Moorland has seen her share of loss—but nothing prepares her for the wreckage that takes the lives of her former colleague's daughter and son-in-law. The only survivor is their young daughter, Melanie, shaken and withdrawn.

For Vince Carter, once a decorated cop, now a man broken by regret, Melanie is all that's left. Estranged from his daughter before her death, he's determined not to fail again. But as he fights for custody, Melanie's silence gnaws at him—because Vince doesn't believe it was an accident.

While Liz hunts an escaped prisoner, Vince uncovers a dark connection between Melanie's crash and Liz's case. And as the threads tighten, one heartbreaking truth emerges... Melanie saw something. And the killer knows it.

Now, Vince must protect the only family he has left—even if it costs him everything.
Lest We Forgive is book 1 in the DS Liz Moorland series of major crimes investigation, set in and around Melbourne.
