'Underwood's novels are insidiously hard to put down' Independent
When Mrs Sophie Easterberg is found dead on her bedroom floor in the picturesque village of Five Meadows, it is apparent she has been murdered.
The obvious suspect is Dave Lucas, an ex-borstal boy recently employed by her, who has since disappeared.
Detective-Superintendent Simon Manton of Scotland Yard is despatched to take charge of the case. He soon tracks Lucas down. But is he guilty? And, even if he is, would a jury convict him?
