Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

A systems auditor is dead.The records say nobody entered the room.When Owen Kerr is found murdered inside a restricted archive at Blackwater Records Centre, the evidence presents an impossible crime. His security badge was the only one used. The cameras show no intruder. The doors record no unauthorised entry.Detective Eliza Calder knows that records can lie without ever being altered.Owen had been investigating a twenty-year-old personnel file built from contradictory dates, missing documents and decisions no one will admit making. His death leads Eliza through Blackwater's sealed corridors, concealed infrastructure and layers of lawful secrecy, where security officers, contractors and senior executives all have reasons to protect the past.Then a second death proves the killer is still inside the investigation.As Eliza reconstructs the route no modern system can see, evidence from her sister Mara's disappearance resurfaces-suggesting that the accepted story of what happened after she left Portsmouth may also be wrong.To expose the killer, Eliza must discover how an institution can record everything that happened and still preserve a lie.
