Winter 1963: two children have disappeared off the streets of Manchester; the murderous professions of Myra Hindley and Ian Brady have started. On the freezing day in December, another child should go missing: thirteen-year-old Alison Carter vanishes from her town, an insular community that distrusts the outside world. For the young George Bennett, a recently promoted inspector, it's the start of his most challenging and harrowing circumstance: a murder with no body, an investigation with more dead ends and shut down faces than he'd have found in the anonymity of the internal city, and an end result which reverberates over time. Generations later he finally explains to his account to journalist Catherine Heathcote, but just when the book is poised for publication, Bennett unaccountably attempts to move the plug. He has new information which he won't divulge, new information that threatens the very foundations of his lifetime. Catherine is compelled to re-investigate the past, with results that move the world ugly. A Greek tragedy in modern Britain, A LOCATION OF EXECUTION is a taut psychological thriller that explores, exposes and explodes the boundary between certainty and illusion in a multi-layered narrative that transforms expectations on their mind and reminds us that what we realize is what we have no idea.
