'A beguiling author who interweaves past and present' The
Times
When DI Wesley Peterson is summoned to investigate a killing, he assumes
that the case is a routine matter. But soon dark secrets start to emerge
from the victim's past and Wesley realises that this cold-blooded murder
is more complicated than he could have imagined.
Archaeologist Neil Watson is meanwhile studying Sandrock, a ruined
village from the First World War that tumbled into the sea. Neil cannot
shake the feeling that something is missing from his explorations: a
cryptic clue that might be able to help Wesley solve his case.
As more victims fall prey to a killer, Wesley fears his precious family
are becoming a target. Just like the fallen village of Sandrock, Wesley
will have to stand tall if he is to withstand the coming storm.
Whether you've read the whole series, or are discovering Kate Ellis's
DI Wesley Peterson novels for the first time, this is the perfect
page-turner if you love reading Elly Griffiths and Ann Cleeves.
