On a storm-lashed summer night, Arthur Hitcham is found dead in the bath at his vast, isolated manor house. His solicitor discovers the body, and to the police the death appears straightforward: it was a heart attack, nothing more.
But DCI Philip Radford sees something else entirely.
Hitcham had recently changed his will, leaving everything to a young woman living in a caravan on his land. And when a wealthy woman dies who also recently altered her will, Radford realises something far darker is at play.
As the body count rises, the victims no longer fit a single pattern. Rich and poor alike are dying, and Radford suspects the killer is driven not by money, but by revenge.
With Inspector Morris at his side, and the ghostly presence of Michelle Carr lingering close, Radford is drawn into a shadowy world of wealth, guilt, and haunted lives. The killer is patient, deliberate, and always one step away.
The trail tightens, and the danger becomes personal. Radford must uncover the truth, all before the past claims another life, possibly his own…
