A man is dead. The killer is a woman. But what secrets lie beneath the surface - so dark that a man has to die?
When Laura Fletcher approaches her home in Oxfordshire to
find hordes of photographers crowding the gates, she knows there is
something terribly wrong. She is faced with the shocking news that her
husband is dead - brutally murdered - and according to Chief Inspector
Tom Douglas, there is little doubt that the murderer is a woman.
In a marriage that has taken her from the glamorous five star
luxury of London, Venice and Positano to a bleak and draughty manor
house in rural Oxfordshire, Laura has learned to guard her secrets
well. She is not alone. It would appear that all the women in her husband’s life have something to hide.
But there is one secret that she has never shared, and when the
investigation reaches its dramatic and horrific climax, she realises
that she has no choice. She has to give Tom Douglas the final piece of
the puzzle. And this changes everything, leaving Douglas with a
terrible dilemma: whether to punish the guilty, or protect the
innocent.

“Abbott has carefully constructed a world of mystery,
depravity, sex, violence, manipulation and intrigue on so many
different levels that I can honestly say you truly have to read until
the last page to understand and appreciate the complexity of the
story.”
