Description
When an enigmatic stranger arrives in Little Camborne, the idyllic English village is shaken to its core. Theodore Cadmus's presence sets off a chain reaction that exposes long-hidden secrets and long-held grudges among the village's residents.
The lives of two seemingly ordinary women, Miss Finch and Miss Swallow, are turned upside down as their quiet existence is disrupted by Mr Cadmus's arrival. As the fates of these individuals become entwined with those of Little Camborne and a mysterious Mediterranean island, a vortex of subterfuge, theft, violence, mayhem, and murder ensues.
