Summary:

When Melanie Akande, daughter of Inspector Wexford's Nigerian-born physician, goes missing, the family brace themselves for a case of abduction-- maybe murder. Melanie had an appointment to see Annette Bystock the day she disappeared, and Annette is found strangled to death in her apartment. Is there a connection?
