✦ Synopsis

IN A CLOSELY KNIT VILLAGE, SOME RELATIONSHIPS ARE TOO CLOSE FOR COMFORT...

Fionnuala Walton was a legend In her part of Ireland—strong- minded, independent, she had built up a highly successful horse- breeding empire.

Now she is lying dead at the bottom of a flight of stairs, and it’s up to Chief Inspector Peter McGarr (helped by his lovely wife, Noreen) to discover just who had the most to gain by her death. But when McGarr uncovers some dark secrets from the past, he finds himself struggling to stay alive—and wondering where Noreen has suddenly disappeared to.

“Gill knows his Ireland and his police work What a pleasure to read a crime novelist who does not fall back on platitudes and cliché writing.” —The New York Times Book Review

“A book that is satisfying in every regard”

—Los Angeles Herald Examiner
