A criminal that preys on the vulnerable. A detective who will fight for the truth. A broken and bloodied body is found dumped at the bottom of a quarry in Cumbria. There are markers of a suicide at the scene but forensic examinations prove it was all an elaborate staging.

DI Kelly Porter soon digs up a bitter history between the two brothers who own the farmland the quarry sits on: Arthur and Samuel inherited half each and have been locked in a feud for decades. Their reluctance to cooperate with inquiries makes answers hard to come by.

Privately, Kelly has other concerns about the family. Her elderly friend recently moved to a care home on the old farm that is managed by Arthur’s steely wife. Kelly senses there is more than meets the eye with this case, but will searching for the truth put others in harm’s way?

The thrilling next instalment in the DI Kelly Porter series. A must-listen from million copy bestseller Rachel Lynch, for fans of Patricia Gibney, Angela Marsons and J.R. Ellis.
