The Sunday Times bestseller

Waterstones Thriller of the Month
Soon to be a major ITV series

Discover the must-read mystery everyone’s talking about, from the showrunner of Broadchurch and Netflix's smash-hit new series, SEVEN DIALS

A masterclass whodunnit’ Gillian McAllister
Everything I love in a crime novel’ Jennie Godfrey
As unputdownable as you'd expect from the writer of Broadchurch’ Jenny Colgan

--

The body is found abandoned on the A35 in Dorset – tied to a chair, stag antlers on his head.

It's Jim Tiernan, landlord of Fleetcombe’s The White Hart pub – and now a murder victim.

Newly arrived DS Nicola Bridge has her work cut out. Fleetcombe is a picture-postcard village. Murder is the last thing on anyone’s mind.

Except that here Nicola finds whispers, rumours, resentments and lie after lie.

Because the smaller the village, the darker its hidden secrets . . .
