A detective follows a case from Dublin to Cornwall--but the suspect
keeps disappearing into the mist . . .
When Detective Garda Sergeant Mike West is called to investigate a
murder in a Dublin graveyard, suspicion immediately falls on a local
woman, Edel Johnson, whose husband disappeared some months before. But
then she vanishes.
Evidence leads West to a small village in Cornwall, but when he checks
in to an inn, he finds Edel has arrived ahead of him. Her explanation
seems to make sense, but just as West begins to think his suspicions of
her are unfounded, she disappears again.
Is she guilty? West, fighting an unsuitable attraction, doesn't want to
believe it. But the case against her is growing. Back in Dublin, his
team uncovers evidence of blackmail and illegal drugs connected to
Edel's missing husband. When another man is murdered, she once again
comes under suspicion. West knows he has to untangle the truth--but it
may not be the truth he wants to hear . . .
