Description
At forty years old, Daniel Winter has just begun his career as a private detective. Having been pensioned off by the Metropolitan Police, he now considers himself peculiarly ill-suited to this new line of work. Daniel's first case is to search Oxford for Miranda Ward-Homer, daughter of a wealthy Hampstead lawyer. However, upon learning that his close friend Philip Haygreen was found dead two days earlier in his home in Jericho, Daniel becomes embroiled in a complex and disturbing investigation. The connection between Philip's death and the disappearance of Miranda is only the beginning of a dark web of secrets and lies. As Daniel delves deeper into the case, he is aided by Kendal Waterhouse, the sixteen-year-old daughter of his former girlfriend Rosie, who has been staying with him for the summer. With this unlikely sidekick, Daniel must navigate the sordid world of Oxford nightclub-owner Dane Goldman, whose reputation as a man of mystery and power will stop at nothing to keep his secrets safe.
