Her life ended in fire. Her story is buried in ashes.
When Danute Zukas, a young Lithuanian woman, is found beaten and burned in a Wiltshire ditch, the horrific crime is left unsolved. Years later, Gus Freeman’s Crime Review Team takes on the cold case, determined to uncover the truth.
As they dig deeper, the team stumbles upon unsettling connections—human trafficking networks, lost connections with her family, and whispers of a cult shrouded in secrecy. The original crime scene is missing, the suspects are elusive, and the motives are as twisted as the paths they follow.
Can Gus Freeman’s team piece together the fragments of a forgotten life, or will Danute’s story remain buried forever?
Into the Sunlight is an unforgettable cold-case thriller that shines a light on the darkest corners of human nature.

Ted Tayler is the international best-selling indie author of the Freeman Files and Phoenix series. Ted lives in the English West country, where his stories are based. He was born in 1945 and has been married to Lynne since 1971. They have three children and four grandchildren. His thought-provoking mysteries appeal to readers of Sally Rigby, Joy Ellis, Pauline Rowson, and Faith Martin. His action-packed thrillers are a must for fans of Mark Dawson and J C Ryan. Gus Freeman’s cold case investigations are carried out with reasoned deduction rather than bursts of frantic action. In each of the 24 books, unsolved murders are accompanied by romance, humour, and country life. The core message in the 12 Phoenix novels is that criminals should pay for their crimes. Unfortunately, the current system fails to deliver the correct punishment, so Phoenix helps redress the balance.
