Description
A gruesome legend comes to life in this chilling mystery. Every year, at Halloween, a life-sized effigy is strapped to a blazing wheel and run into the sea, re-enacting an ancient tale of sacrifice. But when respected local builder Jonathan Riddle disappears, it seems his fate may be sealed - just like that of the historic 'scapegoat'. As Chief Superintendent Wycliffe delves into the investigation, he uncovers increasingly disturbing facts that lead him to a shocking and seemingly impossible solution. As the body count rises, Wycliffe must navigate a complex web of clues to uncover the truth behind Riddle's disappearance. But with each new discovery, he is drawn deeper into a dark world of ancient rituals and modern-day murder. With its intricate plot and atmospheric setting, this gripping mystery will keep you on the edge of your seat until the very end.
