A novel by Peter Grainger
In another thrilling DC Smith investigation, the Kings Lake Central detectives race to solve a twisted murder and learn thatin a town where everyone knows everyone, finding the truth may be the most dangerous task of all.
Detective Sergeant Chris Waters got the call at 5:29 that July morning. ‘This is it,’ said DCI Reeve, ‘you’ll be first there, it’s all yours.’ Suddenly, after months of waiting and wondering, Waters finds himself in at the deep end, and alone at the scene of a puzzling murder.
When a young woman’s body is discovered near the edge of town, the Kings Lake Major Investigation Team must learn that the smallest details can hide the darkest secrets. Known to some as charming and vibrant—and to others as manipulative and dangerous—the victim’s life proves anything but simple. As the investigation proceeds, the detectives at Kings Lake Central find themselves visiting familiar places and talking to some familiar faces, while old enemies reappear in the incident room.
Before the case is solved, DS Waters will need to make a career-changing decision, and another member of the CID team will find herself facing an unexpected challenge. And DC Smith? Gone, but not forgotten? Surely, Smith would say, ‘you cannot write me off with a worn-out cliché like that...’
