β¦ Synopsis
In Devon, England, two bodies in a bog send a police detective into the middle of a murky mystery . . .
When an amateur archaeologist makes an unusual find, she calls a scholar at a local college. But this discoveryβtwo headless, handless bodies buried in a bog on Dartmoorβdoesn't re-quire a professor but the police.
DI Dan Hellier isn't sure how he can identify the victims when nobody has reported them miss-ing. And the tension mounts when the death of a young man plunges Hellier into the murky world of the Garrett family. Could the peaceful, family-run Animal Rescue Centre really be a cover for murder and other criminal activity?
Hellier is about to learn just how far people will go to get what they want. And this investiga-tion will challenge Hellier's decisions as he races to catch a murderer before it's too late.
