Description
Scarlett Green's life was marked by vivid memories of her past, even after recovering from illness. Thirty years earlier, a murder had taken place at a house in Tooting, where she once lived. Her recollections of that event are still clear, and she shares them with the police. When Scarlett returns to work, she faces another challenge: redundancy. Determined to satisfy her curiosity, she starts investigating the long-forgotten murder. However, her inquiry puts her at risk, as she receives threatening messages and encounters danger. Two men enter her life during this time: a suave detective inspector leading the investigation and an inept private detective hired by the victim's parents. As Scarlett delves into the past, memories of friendship, first job, bereavement, and her first love resurface. The line between past and present blurs, leaving her fearing for her safety and that of those closest to her.
