Everyone will want to read this amazing story' - Andrew O'Hagan, author of Caledonian Road Sandra Brown was eight when her friend and neighbour, twelve-year-old Moira Anderson, disappeared from the small town of Coatbridge near Glasgow in 1957. Moira has not been seen since. Twenty-seven years later, at a family funeral, Sandra's estranged father confessed to her that he had been involved in the girl's disappearance. Appalled by his curious half confession, Sandra began to delve into the case and in so doing discovered that her father was a child molester whose activities were known not just to everyone in Coatbridge, but also to the police. The horrifying jigsaw she pieced together, along with the admission her father had made, ultimately convinced Sandra that he had been responsible for Moira's death nearly fifty years ago. Where There Is Evil is the remarkable story of Sandra's quest to unravel the mystery and see justice done. 'Inspirational . . . This book is not only important but unique' - Jimmy Boyle
