Description
A grisly discovery has been made in Tradmouth, one year after the disappearance of Jenny Bercival. A body is found floating out to sea in a dinghy, strangled and brutally murdered. This latest find mars the festivities of the Palkin Festival, held each year to celebrate the life of John Palkin, a fourteenth century Mayor of Tradmouth who made his fortune from trade and piracy. The discovery has sparked fears that death and mystery have returned to haunt the town. Could there be a link between the two women? One missing, one murdered? The investigation is ongoing, but it appears that history may be repeating itself. Archaeologist Neil Watson's recent discovery on the site of Palkin's warehouse suggests that the killer may be drawing inspiration from the past. As Detective Wesley Peterson delves into the case, he uncovers a web of secrets and lies that lead him to question everything he thought he knew about Tradmouth's dark history. The truth is more sinister than he ever imagined, and it will bring mortal danger in its wake.
