"Evelyn James is a good rival to Agatha Christie"
One Night,
One Game,
One person determined to win at any cost.
Mr Phillips likes to live a quiet life. Ever since the war, he has chosen to avoid conflict, to keep his head down, and focus on the future.Mr Phillips is not someone who gets accused of murder.
But his closest friend is dead, and now his own life is in peril. If he wants to save himself, he needs help to prove his innocence.
Clara and Tommy find themselves confronted with a savage murder and a potential miscarriage of justice. But nothing is as it seems in this case; they have too many suspects and not enough clues.
To save Phillips, they need to dig deep into a man’s private life and reveal the tawdry secrets he kept hidden there. But doing so will open old wounds and bring fresh mysteries.
Can they find the truth of the crime before time runs out for Mr Phillips? Or will they simply cause more anguish to the innocent?
