A letter from a vicar in Norfolk leads DDI Hardcastle and DS
Marriott on the road to a shocking and macabre discovery . . . One
rainy morning in March 1927, Divisional Detective Inspector Ernest
Hardcastle of the Metropolitan Police is summoned to the office of
the Chief Constable CID at New Scotland Yard. Frederick Wensley has
received a letter from a Reverend Percy Stoner in Norfolk,
convinced that his nephew, Captain Guy Stoner, has been murdered.
He recently received a letter, supposedly from Guy, claiming that
there had been a fire at his farm in Ditton, Surrey, and asking for
money. Assigned the case, Hardcastle and Detective Sergeant Charles
Marriott travel to Ditton, where they make a shocking discovery,
and are soon drawn into a shady world of deception, fraud, ex-army
officers and West End nightclubs, navigating a labyrinth of twists
and turns in their determination to see justice served.
