β¦ Synopsis
Never Go Back - When the heir to a billion-dollar business empire goes missing in the medieval city of Cambridge in England, PI Evan Buckley heads across the Atlantic on what promises to be a routine assignment. But as Evan tracks Barrett Bradlee from the narrow cobbled streets of the city to the windswept watery expanses of the East Anglian fens, it soon becomes clear that the secretive family who hired him to find the missing heir haven't told him the whole truth.
Immersed in a thousand years of history and learning, Evan discovers that Barrett's woes stem from asking the wrong questions of the wrong people - questions about his own family. As he digs deeper, one question refuses to go unanswered - what lies behind Barrett's obsession with the US Air Force base at Lakenheath, the heart of the CIA's covert operations in England at the height of the Cold War?
As the mystery unravels, Evan finds himself caught up in a violent showdown that's been brewing for sixty years, a bitter feud between Barrett's family and that of a ruthless politician at the core of the British establishment, a desperate man with everything to lose who'll stop at nothing to prevent the dark secrets of his own family's past from coming to light.
