Description
The Doom Bar, a treacherous sandbank in Cornwall's Camel estuary, is home to many watchers with different motives. For analyst George Gilbert, modelling its shifting sands offers a therapeutic challenge after the sudden loss of her husband. Meanwhile, revellers at a stag party nearby are faced with their own immediate problem. Local policeman Peter Travers is struggling to solve a murder with no clear clue about the victim's identity. The case seems both spontaneous and pre-planned, leaving him puzzled. This gripping mystery weaves together two seemingly unrelated storylines, keeping readers on the edge of their seats until the very end. David Burnell's crafty plotting and engaging characters are sure to please fans of crime fiction.
