Haunted by a recent case, private investigator John “Slim” Hardy retreats to the remote Cornish coast, determined to build a quieter life. But when a local woman recognises him, he is drawn back into a dark mystery that has cast a long shadow over the village.
Fourteen years earlier, Richard Maynard died under suspicious circumstances. The only witness was his five-year-old daughter, Ellen. Now Richard’s sister, Wendy, is desperate for answers—but the only person who might have them is Ellen herself, now a fragile, elusive figure drifting through the darker corners of a nearby town.
Was Richard murdered, and if so, by whom? Does Ellen hold the truth… or only deeper secrets waiting to be uncovered?
